Hi guys!

Been using RealmWorks for a while now, and just got Hero Lab (and registered for the forums) today.

I've been using PCGen for character creation, and the one thing I'm really missing so far, is that when I save as PDF i have to choose between various data to save as separate PDFs and then combine them into a single file with Acrobat.

My players and myself are used to having *ALL* the feat/ability/spell data, and it's a lot more steps to produce the same result in Hero Lab.

So the feature request is that multiple selections be allowed in the "print/save as PDF" dialog.

Thanks for listening!

+1. There are other threads asking for the same thing. Really would be nice to be able to print everything for a character in one operation.

What are you using to combine them? I keep getting errors when I try it using Acrobat XI Pro...

+1 as I didn't know this and am quite baffled by it!

Also: Welcome and hello fellow Realm Worker and HL newbie!

One way to print everything in with one keyboard shortcut is to use a macro program like Phrase Express, Active Words, Autohotkey, or a similar program.

But you really shouldn't need to use a separate piece of software and create a macro just to print all of your character's info at one time.
