I don't have Horror either yet, just the preview. It does display fine in Foxit (but I dislike the 'free' links it tries to add to my machine for other services).

I can wait for a fix to the file as I will be buying the PDF. I made the decision to switch to PDFs exclusively when Thaumatology was released as a PDF well before Hardback.

My comp copy reads fine. So proud to have been part of this one in however small a way. Particularly delighted by the Corruption rules, the Corrupting enhancement/limitation, the goods on addiction as a horrror element, and the excellent and deeply disturbing treatment of all the real world mythological nasties. A great marriage of crunch and lore. This book will make any game better. It's that good.

I noticed that the preview PDF has been updated (file size changed!), and this version works fine on my Windows 7-64bit + Adobe Reader X setup (on which the last one failed).

Thanks, and it's defintely tempting me to buy this sooner rather than later!

I avoided saying anything until I had "tested" it with someone who'd sent me a detailed report privately, but I did tweak the preview a bit. (I suspect something got broken when we generated the preview pages.) Hopefully the preview is working for everyone now! If not, please let me know at smarsh@sjgames.com.

I thought I had seen a report from one person who had problems with the full version of the PDF, but I've never seen anything detailed and it's possible I misread or misremembered something somewhere (no one ever sent an e-mail about it to me). If anyone has purchased the full version and is having any problems, please let me know -- again -- at smarsh@sjgames.com.

Thanks!

Thanks, it is working for me now.

I'll probably wait to buy Horror along with the next installment of the Monster Hunter series.
