I have been trying to convert my characters to pdf and i am finding info not completed as the box the info is meant to be in is to small for the information. could you please see if this is fixable
Can you be more specific about what info isn’t completely? The export to pdf function generally produces extra pages to make space for all the features, etc.
Below is a paste of my Actions in the first page. please note the start of the last sentence.
Tentacle of the Deeps: Attack When you create or move the tentacle, you can make a melee spell attack against one creature within 10 ft. of it. On a hit, the target takes 1d8 cold damage, and its speed is reduced by 10 ft. until the start of your next turn.
Tentacle of the Deeps: Move As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the tentacle up to 30 feet and repeat the attack.
Tentacle of the Deeps: Summon • 3 / Long Rest As a bonus action, you create a 10-foot-long tentacle at a point you can see within 60 ft. of you. The
Is there a second page? If so, does the description continue there? If you post the url for this character, I'll try to recreate it in my own account and test the pdf export. It's been a while since I've exported to pdf, but I didn't used to see missing/cutoff features; they always continued on a subsequent page if there wasn't room.
Thanks for the link. I created a similar character, and I see what you mean. In some ways we are both right, as there is an entry for "Tentacles of the Deep" on the second page, which is what I was remembering. At the same time, it is not the complete description, but rather an abbreviated (and somewhat cryptic) entry, not a "carry over" from the actions box.
Ideally, they need to find a way to fix this eventually. In the meantime there is a bit of a workaround. The pdf created is form fillable and thus editable. The first section in the Actions box are standard actions (attack, disengage, etc.). If you are o.k. deleting that section, you can move the Lay on hands details to the left column and then copy and paste or type in the missing text for the Tentacle of the Deeps entry.
Yeah I have been messing around with it and I know its not a big issue, just annoying, I check my other characters and its the same issue on all of them.
thanks for the help u have been great.

I looked and found no where it continued the cut off section.
There is a second page for features but tue cut of section wasn't continued.
Cheers for the help.
