Pathfinder Society Select All Sources and Print Page Numbers

Hey,
Just made a couple of PFS characters recently with Hero Lab and realized that it would be nice to have two additional features. First off, and if HL already does this then please ignore or tell me how to turn on. But it would be nice to have an option to automatically select all the current legal sources for PFS when generating the character.

2nd I have already noted that HL displays which books certain abilities are from and what pages the abilities or resources are on. If HL could output a list of these books and pages that would allow people who play PFS to print out the needed pages from their PDF's to include with their characters to save lugging around 4-5 books and just bring their core book.

and thanks for making a fantastic product! Just like people don't know how they lived without cars or cell phones! I don't know how i Role Played without HL! Keep up the great work!

When you first start HL you can set the books for PFS play in the "Configure Your Hero" window. Then hit "Set Default" or "Save Default" sorry not near HL right now but its a button like that on the Right side. This will save those books so at least when you start a new PFS character you will have those books already turned on.

Sense the character sheet prints all this info already in FULL detail why do you need to go to the PDF to print out the descriptions again?
 
You need it so that you can print the pages from your PDF's. This is needed for the session and must be printed from a legal PDF source.

I have set my defaults :) thanks for the info on the defaults, that just leaves the last part.

as per the Pathfinder Society FAQ

What do I need to bring to a game to use non-core material?

In order to use additional resources for your character, you must bring a physical copy of the book with you or printouts of the appropriate pages detailing cost (if any) and explanations for each feat, item, spell, prestige class, and so on that you use. One need not prove ownership of said material but they must be from a legally obtained PDF or book printed by Paizo Publishing; content reproduced in other sources under the Open Gaming License (such as an online reference document or a homemade omnibus) is not legal with regard to use in sanctioned Pathfinder Society play. Since the core assumption for Pathfinder Society Organized Play is the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook, Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Pathfinder Society Field Guide, and the Pathfinder RPG Bestiary, we cannot assume that every Game Master will have the products included in the Additional Resources list. As such, it is each player's responsibility to bring to the game any necessary rules for running his or her character so that GMs may properly adjudicate the game during play.
