That sheet is a thing of beauty. You cool with me posting that on my site, with appropriate credits?

I like it...another toy for me to play with when I am tinkering with my game.

Absolutely, the more the merrier. The proper disclaimer and copyright info is embedded in the PDF metadata, but I may add it to my download page as well.

I'm really glad so many people are digging this thing - took me like 10x longer than I anticipated, but once I got started I couldn't stop. (There are nearly 250 created form fields on it - the lowest point was after spending hours manually adjusting the tab order to make sense, I moved one field down by 3-4 pixels, and didn't realize until many saves later that by doing that, about a quarter of the other fields had their tab order reset. Hey, thanks Adobe! lol).

Anyway, I'm happy folks are finding it useful.

Hey, man, that's awesome!

About the ST score auto-filling the cost, though; what if the character has the size limitation and that decreases the cost of ST?

Changing any of the fields doesn't seem to adjust any of the others for me. E.g. Setting ST to 12 does not update its cost from 0 to 20. I'm opening the pdf file with the Preview program on a Mac, so that might be the issue.

It does look fantastic though.

I made a quick variant sheet that removes the attribute cost calculations. Hopefully I didn't break anything else in the process - it can be found here.

Sorry to hear that Captain Joy - I can't actually test it with the Preview program (the Preview and Professional don't play well together when I install both at the same time). Hopefully you can still get some use out of it entering values manually.

Well, on Evince, in Linux, I'm having the same issue. I've had other form fillable documents with autocalculation work with it, so the functionality is there.

Still, it's a wonderful thing. Now, for those of us that don't use Adobe's reader, could you allow editing the point costs?

Oops, missed a few fields there - try re-downloading, all the attribute and point cost fields should now be unlocked. Thanks for letting me know.
