Prepare a module to share

Beta

The publishing sheet and PDF options were added on beta, after the 1.3.0-beta milestone. If these controls are missing, see beta additions.

The publishing sheet adds a cover, an introduction for another GM and credits to your campaign. Use it to produce a PDF module to share or sell. Every field is optional: an empty sheet keeps the usual campaign booklet presentation.

Open and save the sheet​

From Export to PDF on the campaign home, choose Fill in the sheet, or Edit the sheet if it already contains information.

Expand the sections you need, fill them in, then click Save. Export to PDF on this sheet opens the booklet options. Generating the PDF first saves your changes. If saving fails, export stops rather than using an older sheet.

Cover and technical sheet​

SectionFieldsPurpose
CoverSubtitle, author, version, illustrationPresent the module under the campaign title; a portrait image is recommended
Technical pageGame system, character levels, number of players, estimated lengthHelp a GM decide whether the adventure fits their table

These are free-text fields: for example, enter “1 to 3” for levels and “Two 4-hour sessions” for duration. The Game system field describes the module; it does not replace the campaign's link to a game system.

Presentation and GM introduction​

  • The adventure at a glance: the situation and play experience on offer. When empty, the PDF uses the campaign description.
  • Content warnings: sensitive themes covered in the adventure.
  • Hidden background: what has already happened, the opponents and their plans.
  • Hooks: concrete reasons for the characters to get involved.

Lightbulbs beside writing fields offer guidance. Lines starting with - become bullet points in the PDF.

Hidden background and hooks are reserved for the GM edition. The presentation and warnings also appear in the player edition: write them with the intended audience in mind.

Credits and licence​

Use Credits for writing, illustrations, maps, editing and playtesting. Licence and legal notice holds reuse terms and notices for content you use. These texts appear on the PDF credits page. Filling in the sheet does not publish anything online.

Choose what to share​

From the sheet or campaign home, Export to PDF lets you select the GM or player edition, included parts, maps and paper format. See Campaign PDF booklet for filters and appendices.

To transfer a campaign that can be edited in Loremind, use the ZIP content export. The publishing sheet and its illustration are included in exported campaign data; include images to transfer the cover. A PDF is a reading document, not an importable backup.
