Are there any plans to include markdown options when creating posts? How about a preview before submit as well?

I don't always remember if I'm using the correct keyboard shortcuts for formatting, so a preview would be handy to double check before submitting.

Thanks Devs for making Voyager awesome! It's still my go-to!

I ran it through pdf2htmlex. It extracted the text, tables, toc, etc. very nicely. Images are just black rectangles. I'll keep playing with the options to see if I can get those extracted and usable as well. So far, this has been the most usable output I've gotten. Thanks again!

Yeah, Draw is too clunky for this. I've been looking at MasterPDF or qoppa's PDF Studio. I'll download Master PDF when I get home to see if the trial will allow for the functions I'm looking for. Thank you!

There are quite a few images and a lot of tables. It's a mega dungeon and campaign setting. Fortunately all of the maps were in a separate document.

I'm leaning more towards this. Any suggestions on what to use to convert it to html? I've ended up going down the rabbit hole reading up on LaTeX now because of this lol

It's worth a shot. I'll try to play around with it and see what happens.

I've installed that on my desktop, but I haven't really tried it out yet. I've also been reading up on Sigil as well. Considering converting it to an epub to read on my phone and e-reader while out and about.

I'm not running Word. I do have LibreOffice on my Linux machines, and use Google Docs on the Chromebook. Docs has struggled to open the pdf because of the size of it. I've even considered using Sigil to try and edit it into epub format.

I need a PDF editor to create internal hyperlinks in a document. I purchased a huge PDF and would like to be able to link internally to keep me from having to scroll or search the relevant data when needed. This thing is massive, over 1100 pages, and it's for ttrpg so there are a lot of tables, locations, special items, etc. that I'd like to be able to link to and find quickly.

I'm okay with paying for software if it will include this feature specifically, however, I don't prefer the subscription-based services I keep seeing listed in general searches. Bonus points: no major hassle with licenses when upgrading my OS to the newest LTS, and I can also run it as a Linux app on my Chromebook.

BaconReader for a while, then Boost the past couple of years. Anxiously awaiting Boost for Lemmy, but trying out a lot of others in the meantime.

This is for the full game. I've considered printing something similar for the Cities expansion.

I found the STL here

Splendor. I 3d-printed a small case for it so that it will easily fit in a bag or backpack. It's one of our favorites.
