Shadow Lodge 4/5

I am sure I am a minority but I play and run 95% of my scenarios online. Maps in the scenarios have indicators for mob locations, traps, secrets and so on. Sure I see the need for it but it makes it a pain in the but to run online as most like to cutout the image and post it in their favorite virtual tabletop. I am no Photoshop/gimp pro and even when I cut it out it generally still is noticeable.

I do purchase maps when they are available (flipmaps, map packs ext..) but when there is a custom map I think they need to include a blank version in the pdf. I know paizo is a company and like any company they should always be looking for new ways to generate revenue. Maybe this is one. I would be willing to pay a few extra bucks to get blank versions of the maps in the scenarios.

Thoughts?

You can extract the images without labels from the PDF, using PdFImage Extract, and then use that. Takes about 2 minutes to learn and use. There are other programs that do it as well.

4/5

1 person marked this as a favorite.

I've actually found that if you click on the image in Acobat and copy, when you paste it into an image editing program - I use Photoshop - it doesn't have the labels either.

I've done the same and simply pasted into Word, and gotten no labeling.

2/5

Same here, click on the image, it highlights, open MS paint, paste, no labels.

I use paint for cutting and pasting anything else I need to and also cropping odd half squares out when printing.
