Export

DM Loremind offers three exports, all shipped: the content backup / sharing (JSON + images), the PDF booklet of a campaign and the Foundry VTT export to play at the virtual table. A Markdown export is under consideration.

Content backup and sharing (JSON)​

The export is launched from Settings β†’ Data backup. It produces a .zip file containing the content in JSON format, along with the images. Two scopes:

  • Full backup (everything) β€” the whole instance: game systems, lores, pages and templates, campaigns (arcs, chapters, scenes, quests), PCs, NPCs, enemies, catalogs, random tables, playthroughs, and the images.
  • A single campaign β€” a selective export of one campaign and its closure, with three options: include the linked lore (world), the play space (playthroughs, sessions and journals, facts, quest progression, character sheets) and the images.

Symmetric import​

The same .zip can be re-imported on another instance, in merge mode: the content is added without replacing the existing data. Ideal for:

  • sharing a campaign or a module with another GM (selective export),
  • migrating between two installations (full backup).

Exports from older versions can still be imported. The procedure is detailed in Configuration β†’ Backups.

Limits​

note
  • Export and import are disabled in demo mode.
  • Only the images actually used are included; orphan images are not bundled.

PDF booklet and publishing​

From the campaign home, Export to PDF produces a printable booklet. Recent beta builds offer GM or player editions, included parts, Lore scope, A4 / A5 / US Letter paper and print mode. Numbered page references, GM appendices and full-page maps help during play.

The publishing sheet adds a cover, technical page, presentation, GM background and credits to share your adventure as a module.

Foundry VTT export​

Also from a campaign page, "Export for Foundry" produces a .zip bundle that the companion module LoreMind Importer imports into Foundry VTT: ready-to-play scenes (walls, doors, lights), journals, random tables and enemy tokens.
