Can't use "Save PDF Portfolio"

[SilvenMike]

I've just created a new character with 1.0d and he saves perfectly as a normal portfolio. However, I want to save a copy as a PDF file to send to my DM. When I click on "Save PDF Portfolio" from the File menu, an error box comes up stating

"To create PDF files, you must download the PDF plugin for Hero Lab. It is available as a free download from the updates mechanism."

The problem is, there's no PDF plugin to download!

Doh! OK, that's my screwup. I forgot to tie the PDF stuff in when I put together the V1.0c release. I'll get that resolved shortly.

Here's a quick update on the PDF functionality. It's all working great on this end, but we had to make an additional change to HL itself in order to integrate it 100% cleanly. That means it won't be included until the next update to HL. However, the next HL update should be just a few days off, so hang tight just a little longer and it will available.

Thanks for the patience,
Rob

PDF support is in the V1.0e release we just posted! You'll need to use the Updates mechanism to retrieve and install the plug-in, after which you should be good to go.
