Known Issues

Studiorum works, but it has rough edges. This list isn't exhaustive.

  • Some tables are too long or too wide for the page and run off it. Edit the .tex output and adjust the layout, or use \dndlongtable instead.
  • Chapters don't open with a drop cap. Edit the .tex and add \DndDropCapLine{letter}{rest of all caps sentence}.
  • Maps inside a 5etools gallery render at half a column each, which is small for a dungeon map.
  • MCP support is new and has had little use from real clients.
  • Creature names are always bold, as in the source data. That gets tiring when a creature is named again and again in a paragraph; edit the .tex and remove the \textbf{} around the name if it bothers you.
  • Studiorum doesn't install the LaTeX template. Install it manually; studiorum doctor checks that it's found.
  • With the licensed WotC fonts (--fonts wotc), the page numbers in the table of contents come out in different sizes. The fonts aren't included, as they aren't free.
  • There are no convert commands for races, backgrounds, classes or subclasses. They render only where a book embeds them.
  • Studiorum guesses when a creature's statblock is too big for one column and gives it both columns. The guess is sometimes wrong, and a statblock runs across two columns or pages. Edit the .tex and put \onecolumn right before the statblock and \twocolumn right after it.
  • A tooltip in the 5etools data ({@tip}), such as a ship's miles per day, doesn't print.
