    Solution to Traveller PDFs not showing images in PDFKit based renderers (macOS and iOS)

    No other RPG publisher has this issue because they understand how to create a pdf that is universally readable. Mongoose either does not, or is unwilling to do what is necessary. This is not an Apple problem. This is a Mongoose problem, a problem that only Mongoose seems to have.

    I'm thinking that you are reading very troll-like. Producing a product that all customers are able to fully use and enjoy is Mongoose's responsibility. This is especially true given the premium prices that Mongoose charges for its products. The problem does not need to have expensive...

    This is Free Trader Beowulf - A Complete History of Traveller on PDF & Pre-Order!

    While I am loving the textual contents of this book, I am quite annoyed by Mongoose's continuing contempt for their paying customers who happen to use Apple computing platforms (MacOS, iOS, iPadOS). This contempt is demonstrated by Mongoose's continuing refusal to deliver pdfs that are...

    Solution to Traveller PDFs not showing images in PDFKit based renderers (macOS and iOS)

    I had the same capcha death spiral experience yesterday, for about ten minutes before I finally gave up and reported it to Mongoose (who told me they could do nothing because it is an outsourced security situation).

    And if they still do not own a Mac/iOS/iPadOS platform, they have a responsibility to bloody well obtain them in order to do the testing necessary to ensure that ALL of their customers have a problem-free experience with their products. This is fundamental.

    Solution to Traveller PDFs not showing images in PDFKit based renderers (macOS and iOS)

    I am very disappointed that Mongoose pdfs are still having image problems in MacOS and iOS/iPadOS platforms. I have hundreds of pdfs that were produced by many sources and they all correctly display images in my readers. What does Mongoose Publishing not understand about producing pdfs that...

    This is Free Trader Beowulf: Errata

    I am glad to have found this forum/thread. I just pre-ordered the book and was not informed that the pdf was still under development. I am sad that Mongoose is depending upon early purchasers to do their proofreading for them. But, that appears to be the state of RPG publishing these days...
