Major Misprint! Please help


Beginner Box


I just received my beginner box and was really excited to create my character and play but then i noticed this...

My heros handbook has pages 17-31 printed twice...it goes from 17-31 then 17-31 again and then straight to page 49

Is there anything I can do outside of buying a new one? do they have a PDF version?


Sorry to here about your trouble.

Paizo does sell the PDF version of the Beginner Box here.

You might try contacting Paizo's customer service (customer.service@paizo.com) and ask if they might provide the PDF for free due to your inconvenience.

If you plan on playing imminently and are missing some information to proceed, you may find some help at www.pfbeginner.com.

Note: Neither I or www.pfbeginner.com are associated with Paizo.

Good luck!

Although Paizo's customer service will be able to help you, their first advice will be to contact the customer service or equivalent of where you bought the beginner box, who should be able to exchange it.

This is an uncommon, but not unheard of printing error. Books are printed 16 pages to a sheet, and then those 16 pages are folded, cut & bound together. Sometimes the bound blocks are missorted by the machine, leading to a book like your heroes handbook.


Yeah I understand it happens, in no way am I angry. I love the box and I'm just itching to play!

Thank you for the suggestions, I have emailed customer service and hope to see a resolution.
