A hotfix for Import Book Art, which could not read either rulebook in 1.5.0.

Fixed

Import Book Art reads the spreads editions of Book I and Book II again.

If you pointed the wizard at the correct 2-up "spreads" PDFs in 1.5.0, it refused both books with "that Book I file is the 1-up edition (one page per sheet)" and then gave up with "no usable book PDF provided". The free GM playbook imported normally, which made it look like a problem with the rulebook files.

It was not. Support for the 1-up GM playbook booklet, added in 1.5.0, brought an edition check that measured page 1 and nothing else: a portrait first page meant one printed page per sheet, and a 1-up rulebook is refused rather than mis-extracted, because every illustration is named by its size and placement on a numbered page of the spreads edition. But a spreads rulebook is not landscape from end to end. Book I and Book II each open on a single half-width portrait cover and close on another, with 306 and 300 landscape spreads in between, so both books were turned away over their wrappers. The playbook's spreads PDF is twelve landscape pages with no separate cover, which is why it was the one file that still worked.

The edition is now decided by five pages sampled from between the covers, with the majority answering, so neither a cover nor a stray landscape foldout can flip a file on its own. A genuine 1-up booklet is still detected and stitched back into spreads, and a 1-up rulebook is still refused rather than quietly mis-extracted.

The wizard also now says what it decided and what it decided it from. The console line names the pages it sampled, the portrait and landscape tally and the dimensions it settled on, on the accepting path as well as the refusal, so an edition it reads wrongly can be diagnosed from a pasted log rather than a 60 MB PDF.

Also in this release

  • The README shows the system as it looks now, with the icon rail rather than the old horizontal tab bar, and sections for the GM Toolkit, Browse Stonetop, and importing art from your own books.
  • The bestiary screenshot shows a creature wearing its portrait instead of the placeholder icon.

Updating

The manifest URL never changes:

Worlds that already have the Import Book Art macro get the fixed version automatically on the next load, as long as it is still named "Import Book Art". A copy you renamed or duplicated keeps the old code; delete it and reload to be re-seeded.
