I'm looking to begin using the Spellbook Master software for my Pathfinder wizard. The program works by downloading OGL spell content from WotC in text form. I would like to do the same with the Pathfinder PRD OGL spell content, but can't find it in a compatible form. It would take "years" to enter each spell manually. Does anyone know of way to download PRD OLG spell info in a "batch" format? Thanks.

d20PFSRD.com has a lot of stuff in spreadsheet form available. That's where I would start.

Hi!

I now have SpellbookMaster 2.3 beta 2 (for the Mac) available. In addition to importing Pathfinder refrence spells automatically, it can now import Pathfinder spells from text files. Just drag a text file containing Pathfinder spells to a spellbook document window to import spells.

Please use the format shown in this file for the spell files. SpellbookMaster can only import spells if they're formatted correctly.

Download the Mac application from here

iPhone & iPod touch version with Pathfinder support is also in the works.

Please free to send me any feedback you may have.

Hi all!

Beta testing period is over.

The Mac app version 2.3 is available from http://petteri.kamppuri.fidisk.fi/spellbookmaster/.

iPhone app is in App Store review, and will hopefully be available in a week or two. It will be able to import all the spells available at d20pfsrd.com, which includes Pathfinder SRD and APG spells.

I hope you enjoy the apps!

It should be really easy to do this conversion. I've done similar stuff using SGMLreader, XSLT, and RegEx in about a day's worth of time. XML Spy has a trial version and you wouldn't need SGML Reader with it.
Unfortanately, I'm not set up right now to do it for you. But if you want to give it a shot yourself, I can try to answer any questions.
