  • Bleed. There is an option to enable it. Requires a change to templates to add what to show in the bleed area.
  • Inline images in text: {imagename.png}. Only works in single-line text (not multi-line flowing text that you create by dragging a box with the text-tool).
  • Sheet Backgrounds. You can define in layers cs_background_front and cs_background_back anything that should appear on the front and back of all sheets, and special markers %SHEET% and %SHEETS% will be replaced on each sheet.
  • Simple text styling. \*bold\* and \/italics\/ in text, just like that.
  • Import text from external files. Sometimes the spreadsheet felt a bit messy with long multi-like texts for cards, so now they can instead refer to an external text-file. See Set Text.
  • Registration marks have been expanded with lines drawn parallel to the edges of each block of generated counters, on both back and front sheets. This is to make it easier to align front and back sheets. Inspiration taken from this bgg thread: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1943381/method-making-double-sided-counters
  • Registration marks can be expanded to also draw lines over the entire sheet instead of just being drawn around the edges. I actually do not think this is a good idea, but still. See Registration Marks.
  • One-sided sheets option. Makes the back of each sheet appear on the same layer (and in the same exported PDF and PNG for that layer). The back appear on the same distance from the right edge of the sheet as the corresponding front is distanced from the left edge (so typically keep anything double-sided on the left half of the page when this is enabled). This is a style used for many print’n’play and magazine games that want to keep all game tokens on a single sheet even if they are to be mounted doule-sided.
  • All dimensions input in the dialog now are given with any units (like mm or in) instead of being hard-coded.
  • Many bug-fixes, new test-cases, improved documentation.
