Awesome thanks! Been waiting for this before having a couple other books printed too

Really surprised there isn't already a topic about this or any updates posted to the KS pages. I'd have thought this would be big news Monolith would want to share with their fans. Monolith is taking the license from Modiphius and will be developing their own take on an Rpg. https://www.modiphius.net/blogs/news/conan-license-update

Mine arrived too. Looks fantastic. The new cover is awesome, love the back especially. Thanks man, really appreciate all your hard work creating this

Interesting. I contacted LuLu to see if i could update the file to 3.1.1, but they said you only have 1 hour to make any changes to any order, plus mine shipped that same day. So good news is it's on the way! But I'm curious what change you made so I can make a note of it in my copy
-
You got yours so quick, I'm jealous. My order has been "in production" for 2 weeks now. I'm excited to get it, especially now since my Conqueror expansion has arrived. Ha! Just saw that you updated it to 3.1.1 so I put in a request to LuLu to see if I can update before they make mine

Yeah. Page numbers are still high (page 8 is actually page 4 etc...), but I figured no biggie and ordered a hardcover anyway. And that error is normal for Conan stuff. Even the official Conan stuff like Hither Came Conan throws that error. I have no idea why the Conan stuff is like that, the transpapency issue drives me nuts as it prints white lines & artifacts around objects that shouldn't actually be printing. Even the official damn book is like that. I wonder if it's because none of these files are flattened, but still in layers? No idea, but so far I've had Hither Came Conan, Heart of Ahriman, Tales from the North & Whispers from Stygia printed and all of them have that issue in minor degrees

Awesome. I'll put in my Hardcover order right now. Appreciate you getting it all updated man! My Conqueror all-in gets delivered tomorrow, so cool timing! EDIT: Maybe should pull all the old files down so people easily know what is the latest fixed version? EDIT 2: Ordered!
-
Cool, will you be fixing the page numbering too?

Hither_Came_Conan_US_Cover As a Magazine: Gives this error Book Size: Your PDF dimensions are 18.542" x 13.444" (470.96mm x 341.49mm)For the book size you selected, the PDF dimensions need to be within 16.728"-16.853" x 11.877"-12.002". (424.88mm-428.05mm x 301.69mm-304.86mm). Please update your PDF dimensions or select a different book size. As a Hardback Book: Previewed just as it should. Looks like it would print just as good as the print copy I had made myself Whispers_From_Stygia_Hardback_Cover As a Magazine: Also doesn't work, gives the same error Book Size: Your PDF dimensions are 18.542" x 13.444" (470.96mm x 341.49mm)For the book size you selected, the PDF dimensions need to be within 16.728"-16.853" x 11.877"-12.002". (424.88mm-428.05mm x 301.69mm-304.86mm). Please update your PDF dimensions or select a different book size. As a Hardback Book: Also previewed just as it should and also looks like the print copy I own However, the page numbering of the interior is still off as I mentioned a few comments back
-
Sorry, just saw your message. I'll try after work and let you know
-
Thanks guys. Would still be nice if they updated these so you didn't need anything special to print them, like the original ones were.
-
OK, I retested all 6 combinations again to be sure. Here's the breakdown for you Luu_Hard_Cover_302x427.pdf Will not work for a Hardcover Book, errors Will work as a Magazine, just missing interior page art LuLu_Hard_Cover.pdf Will not work for a Magazine, errors Will work as a Hardcover, however it is cut off at the top and off-center so not usable Front_back_inside_cover_magazine.pdf Will not work for a Magazine or for a Hardcover, gives errors for each
-
Thanks, Just tried the new file: lulu_hard_cover_302x427 LuLu will not accept it as a cover for a Hardcover Book. LuLu will accept it as a Saddlestitched Magazine cover and it appears to be perfectly centered. However it is missing the internal sleeve/page art For a Hardcover Book it gives this error:

I've tried printing it with Chrome set for pdfs and Windows set for pdfs and tried every page/printing option and it always shows the crops on screen and prints them as well (or crops the image to make it unprintabel) How or what program are you using to open/print it? EDIT: Just tried it from my work PC too and same thing, crop/cut guides no matter what program or settings I use. EDIT 2: Looks like the documents sizes don't match: Compendium One & Two are both 8.85 x 12.28 Compendium Three is 8.5 x 11.93 I also found older versions of the Compendiums that do all print correctly (although they have slightly different covers with the # at the top right white on orange). All 3 of these Compendiums print correctly and all 3 are 8.5 x 11.93, so maybe that is the size these files here were supposed to be done at.
-
Compendium 3 & 4 are fine, but Compendiums 1 & 2 have crop marks in the corners of every page so no good to print. Any chance of getting clean versions that match 3 & 4?
-
The new Hardback cover file also won't work as a magazine. Gives this error And trying to use the Magazine cover file as a magazine gives this error Hopefully that helps!

Cool thanks. Just tried it and it does let it process and show a preview this time, but it's a bit to big. The Conan Sands of Despair Title is far right on the cover and cut off at the top. The text on the back is far left of center. The spine title is off center. It also looks like pages numbered 5, 6 & 7 in the LuLu file are on the wrong pages as those page numbers print in the inside margin rather than the outside corner like the rest of the book. Looks like this is because the PDF has 2 additional pages not included in the LuLu file (Pdf page 2 "Check for the latest version before playing" page. And Pdf page 8 "Rules of the new gameboards") Without those 2 pages the LuLu page count gets thrown off for pages 5, 6 & 7. Could be fixed by adding a single page in front of those... maybe an art splash page before the table of contents page or something? The rest of the book is correct. Now I'll try it as a magazine to see how that Cover works there.

Trying to get v2.2 to print on LuLu, but when selected as a magazine it just says the cover is formatted the wrong size and won't go any further. It won't even show me the preview. Printing it as a book doesn't work either as the cover has the inner leaf art. Anyone actually get v2.2 to print yet and how did you get it to go through?
