Public Beta Features

Adds new "Beta Print" option to app menu which prints characters generated by the server

These "printouts" are generated as a series of PDF files (character sheet, journal, spell details, etc) and packaged as a .zip archive file for download. You can use those files in any way you choose (print them on paper, store them on your devices or in cloud storage, etc).
The layout and format of the printouts should be familiar to anyone who has printed a character in Hero Lab Classic, as it uses the same underlying systems. This allows us to take advantage of the many years of maturity that system has to offer over the current printing system, so printing output should be significantly improved.
All device regardless of size will be able to use this option. This will allow you to download PDFs of your characters to devices like phones and tablets
Unlike the previous printing system, there are no browser differences in printing output, so all users can enjoy the same high quality printouts (Firefox users, rejoice!)
The existing printing system will remain in place for the time being. This will give us a chance to iron out any kinks in our new printing infrastructure. Once we do, we will take this new printing system out of "beta", and mark the old printing system as deprecated for a short time, to give everyone a chance to transition to using the new system. After that, the old system will be removed.

Can we get this for Starfinder, too?
So, this option is available for Starfinder, though it does not say that in the notes above.

I was able to print a Starfinder character, I didn't check if everything was correct.

Bug Report - HLO, Starfinder, Print Beta

I have a custom item in the system that is reflected in the Gear Encumbrance/Bulk calculation, but does not show up on the Print Beta character sheet. Please include custom items.

Also, looking at it, I appear to be missing my industrial backpack, as well as the Formal Clothing and other items I had moved to a different container.

Factions do not seem to calculate the correct reputation and tier, except for your primary faction. My character 18615-0701-Hardware mostly has Dataphiles reputation, but he has also gained some with the Acquisitives, the Exoguardians, and Second Seekers (Luwazi Elsebo), but none of that is apparent on the printed character sheet (except for the Daptaphiles reputation)

I don't know if this is something to report but I would like to suggest adding the character's weapon proficiency to the Beta Print out. It's listed if you take an extra one as a feat but it is not listed if you started out with it.

[Geodragon]

Yes, my wife noticed the missing weapon proficiencies. Gear and abilities was missing a number of things. (Some class abilities was not listed. Armour modules had no descriptions.

[TheMaskedFerret]

@geodragon @trester Did you report these via the bug reporting tool?

[Saint Bernard]

I like the Print Beta. Still a little crude compared to HLC but a great start.

[inspectah9d9]

Is there a way to print the old way again? I definitely don't like the changes. I want one PDF with everything and the options to customize what shows up on the PDF. multiple means loading different pdfs. unless I'm missing something. I also think the older ones looked a bit nicer with the header boxes and well, im sorry i have been trying to like it.

[evdjj3j]

While I like the new character sheets it would be nice to be able to get the PDF that is created as one document. I print two sided and usually end up wasting paper because the sheet is on multiple PDFs.
