Hi!
Developers!
I love TVPaint!

I very often do .PDF
File----Publish
And I have a question. When will this place look worthy in these files? :D :D :D

It's a very good idea to get the STORYBOARD :) so fast. Maybe I'm the only one who suffers from this inconvenience. :D

I confirm the same issue with the formatting (the font size doesn't always fit properly inside the storyboard panels )

The formatting of the publish to HTML works better, so it would be nice if the publish to PDF was the same formatting.


Here is what the publish to HTML looks like in "Occidental" and "Japanese" formats :

I suppose a workaround could be to use 'publish to HTML' , then open the HTML file in a browser, then choose Print from the File menu , and
in the Printing options choose "Open as PDF" , then save the PDF .

I understand, but as a short-term workaround , will this help ? --

1.) Storyboard is ready to publish - go to File menu > Publish > HTML (Japanese view)

2.) Open HTML storyboard file in a browser window

3.) in the browswer from the File menu choose Print , then in the Print dialog choose Open PDF in Preview
Save HTML storyboard as PDF.jpg
4.) When the storyboard opens in Preview go to File menu > Save , to save it as a PDF file.
Save PDF file.jpg
Now your storyboard is in PDF file format.

Thanks!
I Know about all!
But!
I would agree to remove this place in the grid, where the numbers do not fit completely. I just need the accuracy. Do you understand?
Because the way it is implemented today looks helpless and not accurate.
But this is the most suitable and eye-pleasing PRO format. :D

And the storyboard look good and neat. :D
