Can I publish character sheets I create in Hero Lab?
 

I am about to have a new project published, and I use Hero Lab to create the characters for it... my question is: can I include a printed out Hero Lab character in the back of the book? They just work so well, and I use them when I GM at conventions. Thanks for the help!

I can't comment on the sheet itself. But be careful with pictures you add.

I've just had confirmation from the owner of Hero Machine that character images made using his tool can be used in commercial products so that just became an amazing option IMO.

Unfortunately, it needs Flash.

Ok now thats cool, i've used heromachine a lot for shadowrun :D

If you just mean using stat blocks, or something like that there shouldn't be a problem. There may be legal issues with reproducing Hero lab character sheets. I would suggest you send an email to support and explain what you want to do and ask if its okay.

Yes you can - this page should have all the details you need:

Heh, well, thankfully this is an already published thing for a different system that is heading for Savage Worlds - the artwork is by Dan Houser, of ICONS fame and elsewhere, so that's not an issue. I had funky homemade character sheets in the back of it, but I really like having the Hero Lab sheets at conventions to hand players, so it'd be really cool to include those, if Pinnacle goes for that. They may just want stat blocks though. I'm waiting to hear about next steps right now.
