That was a really good tip, I can also share this way, with the download options on, the character sheets, since it looks like it's a great way of centralizing a place for the documentation.

I didn't realize that you also need to specifically shut off the options to download or print the file to allow for a proper "view only" option. Thanks for the tips! This was a very helpful video.

I have no positive confirmation but I feel like my question inspired this video :) Thanks for the great information, Mike!

Michael Shea

It may very well have! I've had a few people ask about sharing PDFs and its something I personally dealt with when running my KP-focused 5e games recently.

Tatum Vayavananda

This will be of definite utility to the TTRPG community! Thank you for all you do!

Richard Anderson

Really great advice and a cool tool I never thought of using. Thx Mike!

Jim Baird

This is a great tip, Mike! Is there a way to create a link to a specific page in a PDF using the Google Drive share feature?

Andres Yuhnke

I believe there are a few clunky work arounds, but I think the easiest way would be to extract the page or pages you want to share to a separate file. If you don't have acrobat pro you can find free alternatives, I've been using dochub.com for a few years without any problems.

You can use most modern browsers to "print to PDF" and create a selection of the pages you need, then use Mike's method to shade the resulting document.
