And speaking of technicalities: what software do you use? I've been making mine in LibreOffice, and I can't imagine making the space between attribute boxes, for example.

The best solution may be using Character Sheet generators that would include only what each player wants for their characters, in a fairly rigid page template. But that's beyond my skills. The software I use is Adobe Illustrator. But InDesign (or other DTP application) is perhaps better suited for it, even though it's just a 1-4 page document. Don't really know how you would go about doing it in LibreOffice... I have no experience with it. There's this free and open source application I just found called Scribus that may be a good alternative. https://www.scribus.net/ But in Illustrator, I simply made the attribute boxes a certain size, then aligned them vertically with the attribute names, which are in a textbox. The spacing between text lines being the line height. I had followed a baseline grid at first, but in wanting to put all that in I dismissed it for the attribute block, at least. I might get back to that for a next version... But I'm considering changing the layout a bit. Not sure I fully answered your question... Last edited by allluckyseven; 11-20-2017 at 07:33 PM. |
