Patrick JP (ID: 000000ce0e9dc9a1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/23/2023 Works! It adds a button to export, but it would be nice to import

Samuel DeWall (ID: 0000008445752e62) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/07/2023 This doesn't seem to be working. I click export and nothing pops up to choose a location, so I am not sure if it is even working. I've look all over on my computer to see where it may be exporting to, but I can't find it. I wish it would have worked, because this would have been very helpful

Katelyn Swartz (ID: 000000d2d4bde025) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/06/2022 FINALLY! Thank you so much for this extension. As Nito mentioned in their review, there are some formatting issues with actually printing to PDF, hence only 4 stars, but far better than anything Roll20 has managed to put out themselves. Looking forward to this getting even better with time.

Nito Lugo (ID: 00000034a3d15aaf) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/07/2022 Very neat & useful feature for getting char sheets quickly printed. So far the only half-decent method of printing sheets from Roll20 Would be nice if the generated sheet was better formatted for printing though. Printing the sheet for IRL use has a few problems, namely... - Text block sections being split across pages, instead of optimizing & organizing space usage (i.e. putting Inventory on 1 separate page, rather than half inventory on 1 page, half on another page) - Text being truncated/cut-off - Lack of Rich Text Formatting - Inclusion of web-exclusive elements being visible on page (i.e. "Add New Item" buttons) or excluding elements that were part of the character or sheet (i.e. Player Name)
