Printing someone's shared document

Hi everyone, I want to print a few documents as a present for our DM, since we play in person.
This includes loot tables, example shop loadouts, homebrew items, etc.

One thing that caught my eye was "Raphael's Collection of Powerful Oddities", idk if I can share a link, but it's easy enough to find.

The thing is everything else I'll be printing is in ISO (A4) format, and this document is in I believe ANSI (Letter) format.
Is there a way to change the format of the document and save it as PDF in that size ?

Putting a Column break before a H1 Title?

Is there any way to add a column break before a H1 title? I'm assuming you would have to create a rule to fix H1 text into a column since they instead split the page. Alternatively can I extend the text margin of a single page by half the pages width as I'm basically trying to start a page in the second column anyway.

Thanks

Is GM Binder Down?

Just what the title says. The login button doesn't work (tried on a few different devices, same result).

Does anyone know if they monitor this subreddit?

Change the image that shows up as icon and preview

I can change the cover art, but not the image that shows up in the My Library view and searches - that is stuck, I think on the first image I added to the file early on. How is this supposed to work?

Sudden Style Change Across Entire Do

Howdy all!

I have been creating a monster 200+ page campaign and suddenly the style has shifted across all my docs and any I try and download. I typically use phb#p1, and that is still what shows up when I view published docs, but when I'm editing, it switches to a generic style throughout. It makes it impossible to format around pictures, since everything changes when I view. I have gone incognito, cleared cache, etc. All docs I view in edit mode are the same generic font and style now. Any ideas?

Community Resource

There are plenty of mediums on which to check out some great Dungeons and Dragons original content, not the least of which is Wattpad. The DnD community has seen some explosive growth since Critical Role, and still more with the 2023 film “Honor Among Thieves.” Thanks for looking.

Need help with the site

Hey people, Im trying to hoard as many cool subclasses/classes spells races and feats. Gmbinder looks like a place where some great people put their stuff into. Yet I feel like I dont have access to all of it. For example it only shows 100 entries on the screen and I cant really get the full list of documents under something like subclasses or races nor can I sort them in any way that I like. So I woul appreciate some help with navigating the site more effectively. Search option also appears to be insufficent given that I can find a X author via a search through google but cant do so in the site. I also registered myself in hoping it would provide more searching power but no. So yeah to anyone who cares to comment on this post thank you for your help and time in advance if I happen to reply late.

Issues with formatting?

Hello reddit, I'm new to GM binder and was just browsing some stuff of interest. I'm using Chrome if that helps.
the page will just cut off on the side like this. I downloaded the PDF and the issue still exists in PDF form as well. this cuts off half the information on any given page and makes the actual document nearly unreadable

If this an issue for anyone else? If so how do I fix it? I just wan to read the tome of Forgotten dragons

Images have disappeared from my document

So under my Homebrew Class i previously had images that would appear in what now look like the blank spots under tables and subclasses. I noticed it kept the cover image but it is now showing as a gmbinder . png link. The rest of my images that were working previously are still in there as the google drive links they were but are just not appearing. I tried moving their positions and size around to see if maybe the formatting was updated but no luck. Does anyone know what happened?

How to link to a certain page of a listing?

If a listing has multiple pages, and i'm trying to hyperlink to a certain page, ex: click on link, and it moves to that page that's not the cover page, is that possible?

I've tried to research this but cannot find it.

Thanks for your time.

Corner images for under the text are not working

So I have a document and at the bottom of the pages I add the following images over the numbers:

https://drive.usercontent.google.com/download?id=1cFMk2nAyhT4Pg4mUD-f5h8DIdj6zJhOU&authuser=0

But for some reason it shows the "broken image" error symbol where the image is supposed to be. Can anyone tell me what the problem might be here?

New version not publishing

Hi, I am trying to update my gmbinder document but when I create a new version nothing happens. I added something to my document and now I can't get it to show up in the published version. This is what it should look like but this is what it currently looks like

Format issues and wrong content display when trying to download pdfs

My problem is the following, I wanted to download this document from GM Binder, on the website it displays correctly, besides 2 missing pictures but I don't care about that.
I tried this using both the share feature on my Ipad, as well as printing/downloading it on my Mac, both times I ran into the same issue: The pages are split horizontally (The split adds up with each page) and also the text contents, tables and pictures are all over the place.
No Change of format from A4 to US Letter solves either issue, I found absolutely 0 information about this online. And bc no direct pdf download is available, and all documents seem to be rendered on a user to user basis, there is no way for me to get a non-scrambled file

What I'm looking for is a solution or workaround, which I was not able to find so far anywhere, which is why I wanted to consult the source

Thank you in advance for any help

Is there a guide to show's all the available fonts in the application?

I'm new to GM Binder and I've been searching don't see a list of fonts I can use. I like the default I've been seeing for like the ### section dividers (kinda swirly and fantasy looking), but I don't know what the font name is. Anyone got an idea of where I can view the catalogue of available stuff? Maybe even more than just fonts as well?

Help for my College PDF

Greetings Brewers,

I am using GMBinder to create a PDF for my college book assignment preview. Could someone generate a style for me to plug in so that it meets the following formatting restrictions:

  • Follow Turabian style (as specified in the Turabian manual) for the review.
  • Use 1” margins all around.
  • 12 point font.
  • Make text double-spaced.

Thank you all in advance

Add a warning for disabling default gmb theme

I had finished creating a document and was trying to get a new theme to work but couldn’t figure it out. Untoggled “use default gmb theme” and it wiped all my text and images and was unrecoverable. Partly my fault for not creating a version of my work before hitting that, but the fact it wipes all your work should be warned. Lost an hour of work and now have to do it all again

How to AVOID wrapping two columns, to instead have one

I understand why GMbinder and others automatically make the page have two columns to have half on the left side of the page, and half of the right side of the page.

However, is there any way to stop this from happening so that it is all on one column or on three columns instead?
I would like this HB text to span the full width of the page rather than just to half way so that there is only one column which is as wide as the page rather than two columns which are each half the width of the page.
