Hi, pdfform.js is a fantastic utility! I got it to work satisfactorily on my project to generate a filled-out character sheet for Dungeons & Dragons fifth edition: https://github.com/drogoganor/dndcharactermaker However, I did get an error with the fillable form which I had to work around. Here's the PDF: https://media.wizards.com/2016/dnd/downloads/5E_CharacterSheet_Fillable.pdf The error was 'doc.acroForm.map.Fields.slice is not a function' on line 291 of pdfform.js, in the function 'function visit_acroform_fields(doc, callback)'. My solution was to make this check always false, which makes the function use the fallback logic which worked. I just thought you might want to know. Thanks again! |

Great App with only a few tweaks needed
I’ll start with a brief praise for the app. It’s streamlined, it has a good UI, it’s intuitive and customizable. The app is great for creating a character and allows for the addition of homebrew to a large extent if you want.
Now in terms of criticism I really only have 3 main points. Some useful additions would be the ability to copy a character. If you have a character and want to play around with leveling or other aspects you have to recreate that character entirely. It would be a lot easier if there was a way to simply copy the existing character. Some others have already stated that a database with the spells/abilities descriptions (or at least a page reference) would be helpful. Finally a way to sync devices data would be helpful. It may be just on my end, but my iPad version of the app doesn’t have the characters on my phone, nor does it recognize the paid app upgrade made on my iPhone.
On the note of leveling down a character, I think a more intuitive approach would be helpful as well, but would like to point out that you can undo changes to a character through the restore option in top left hand folder.

Great App with a lot of customization
Let me preface this by saying I paid for this not because I had to, but because I wanted to. I had been using this app for free for two months. It’s shocking that I can save more than one character, customize the build myself, and saves everything I input and does so much for free. I paid for this app, to because I was interested in the level up system, which is useful, or to get rid of apps, but I bought this app because I feel like it was quite well made. It’s simple and may require a bit of input on your end but it leaves room to customize and lay things out exactly how you want
My ONLY gripes: when I’m inputting some text, the box won’t expand further down than where the text is it, and this does t happen everytime but only when add on text somewhere mid paragraph or something. Not a big deal, just got return to add a line and expand the box. Also when you’re at the character information section, my phone brings up the text over where I’m typing, making it a true guessing game if I’m spelling things right haha. Not the biggest deal because when you get it done, it’s done, but it would be nice if there was way to have the app jump up to just over the text keyboard.
Overall, must have for all DnD players and you should pay this guy your $3. It’s totally worth it considering the apparent work out in and how much you can do without problem.

Great app, room for improvement
The App is easy to use and I have found a lot of errors in some of my group’s build when I was inputting them so it’s great at doing the math and figuring out the skills. I don’t like Google drive and find it annoying that there isn’t a Dropbox or iCloud option. I deleted a bunch of test characters from Google drive, but when export or import a character, they are all still listed and I can’t figure out how to delete them all outside of re-installing. One thing that would help a lot is if the app syncs to my other devices. I have a gaming iPad and a phone that also have the app and have to export from the iPad to Google Drive and then import it to my phone. Every time I have an update on one, it saves as another file and then I have all these confusing saves that do not exist on my drive but is still listed in my import/export list. That being said, I love this app. It streamlines my info for game play and lets me know the basics for the group. I like the spell tracking and HP and the ability to reset with short/long rests. I can’t wait to see what they add.
