Hi Shard of Honor,

I see that you are using Trajan Bold Pro and Minion Std Black, both are copyright by Adobe. In the way you are using those fonts, the full font program is downloaded by the client. This is clearly a license violation. Therefore I tried to find some free and open source alternatives and found Cinzel and Crimson Text. What do you think?

Cinzel Bold
https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Cinzel

Crimson Text Bold
https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Crimson+Text

You are right. Thanks. Not the best idea...
I copied that part from the original generator.

Now, the font files are not hosted any more inside the generator. Instead, it first tries to find these fonts on your local computer, and otherwise a cascading fallback is defined to load them or similar replacements externally. This might result in some visual differences.

This thread has now been stickied, presumably in response to some feature or other added by Shard of Honor... italics, maybe? In response, I've edited the first post to include links to Shard's fork at its home page and also its announcement in this thread.

I have a few questions about the ShardofHonor card generator
1.  The Primary vs. Secondary option see to be 'flipped' - I have an Action - Duration - Reaction card (same type as Caravan Guard)
     But in order to get the correct color layout (to match Caravan Guard), I have to make the primary as 'Reaction', then secondary as 'Duration'.
     This seems counter-intuitive to me.  Sure I can adjust the sequence, but maybe it is just me that has noticed this?
2. I could not figure out how to use the 'Additional Bold Keywords' option
3. Is the split position options, in place for a reason? Are there Expansion option that have the coloring not using the 1/2 option?
4. VP Token option used in any of the current expansions?
Thanks

It took me a while to figure out "Additional Bold Keywords" as well. Basically, it only works if you want something like "+2 Mutineers." You type in "Mutineers;" in the box, and it will bold any type of "+[number] Mutineers"

1. I agree with you, but if I change it now, all links will be broken...
2. For example VioletCLM's Sellsail
3. The split position could be used to achieve an effect as in Pasture or Distant Lands, where the green coloring is not perfectly in the middle.
4. VP Tokens are used in the German prints of Prosperty and Empires (by ASS Altenburger) instead of the normal VP symbol. A stupid decision of them, but I rather have all my cards consistent...

    ---- Good point.  Yeah I really would not like to have to fix them.  And I should NOT complain either.  These card generators are AWESOME.
My apologies for noticing (I test software for a living).
2. For example VioletCLM's Sellsail
-- I see, I could not figure out the 'use' format.  It required the +1 symbols (I just thought it would bold any word in the field.  Thanks.
3. The split position could be used to achieve an effect as in Pasture or Distant Lands, where the green coloring is not perfectly in the middle.
Still an awesome option, although I could not 'replicate' the DL effect.
4. VP Tokens are used in the German prints of Prosperty and Empires (by ASS Altenburger) instead of the normal VP symbol. A stupid decision of them, but I rather have all my cards consistent...
I like the VP Token option as a new option to use in my card text instead of typing "Victory Point token" I can type #"  Thanks for making the card designer so 'flexible'.

It could just be my eyesight, but there are two "+" symbols that do not seem to be 'bolded'
The + $1 Coin and the +1 %

https://shardofhonor.github.io/dominion-card-generator/index.html?
title=2%20Non%20Bolded%20Plus&description=%2B1%20Buy%0A%2B%202%25%0A%2B%20%241%0A%0A&type=&credit=&creator=&price=&preview=&type2=&color2split=1&boldkeys=&picture-x=-1&picture-y=-0.35&picture-zoom=1&picture=&expansion=&color0=0&color1=0&size=0

Note:
Also if you start off you remove the space in the +$1 it is really big

Yeah, there is a problem in the regular expressions, that for the rules of when to bold text...
I am not very good in regex, but I'll try to fix it and refine the rules to better handle these cases.

When removing the space between plus and coin or VP, it is correctly recognized as symbols, that should be bolded. But as these are now alone in a row, they are formatted differently than in the text. And Coins and VP symbols alone are much bigger... currently also if there are leading operators.

In the meantime, you can trick the generator into thinking, that there is other text in the line by using invisible special characters like the non-breaking-space:

Hello,

I'm french, and I work on some projects to translate fan expansions into my language for me and my friends.

This card image generator is wonderfull to do that ! Thanks so much for that tool.

There is my question.
In the fan expansion called salvation, a new token is used, like in this card :


How can I insert it by this generator ?
I think it needs a little improvement.
2 solutions : add this token or ... a way to add some special characters linked to some little image that we can use in description.

The second solution would be a great improvement ;-)

That was quite easy to add. I hope one custom token is enough. Making it variable would be a lot more work...
Here is your example: Indulgence Trade

I still couldn't solve the problem with icons in single lines, but at least it is possible to use the workaround mentioned above.

The Victory token symbol doesn't seem to work. It shows up all grey. I don't think I'd recognize what it was if I didn't tell it to put a victory token symbol there.

It's the symbol used by the German prints by the publisher ASS Altenburger and should depict one of the physical tokens of empires or prosperity. Sad, that they decided to change that from the English originals, but at least with that option it is possible for me to keep all my German versions consistent within themselves.
So it works as intended but is only of limited use for you guys...

I was able to download the card. But then I realized I don't actually know how to copy a downloaded image into the forum. How does one do this?

You have to upload it at a image holster and use the file url to include it. For the correct syntax, just quote a post with pictures to see the code.

I think is related to the web page. I tried with other icons of that page, and they seem to not work. Try to download the icon and upload somewhere else, like imgur

I am happy somebody has already noticed it  :)

In general, the favorites function is not that different from bookmarks in your browser. As you maybe know, the card generator stores all parameters in the URL. The favorites are these URLs stored locally in the browser (similar to Cookies). An advantage is duplicate checking for new favorites (it does store the exact same parameter combination only once) and the search function. The title is generated out of the template type, the price, the card types and the card title. But be careful, if you delete your browser data, all sorted entries are gone again.
Or if I program a bug...
Real favorites or exported pictures are saver.

So what to do with it?
I wouldn't use it to store entire expansion sets because there is no export function yet and as said, it might get lost easily. But for a quick access for current work-in-process cards or own templates, it might be just right.

Why did I do it?
I was in the mood for programming and liked to explore the possibilities of the browsers local store a little bit more.

Additionally, I did also add a simple web app service worker, that caches all card source files. Hopefully, this increases the performance of the generator.

PS: as already said by Freddy10, the image issue is most likely related to how that webpage serves the files. But I haven't found the reason...

Shard of Honor, I've been using the generator for a while now and have yet to express my appreciation. It's amazing! Thank you for putting in the time and effort to save us all time and effort.

I've run into a rare issue. If you want to add a cost and debt to a dual type card, the debt icon covers the beginning of the word "Action - ..."
Here's an example to see what I mean. I'll likely just photoshop this card myself but I thought I'd mention it anyway. Thanks again your Honor.

Easier than photoshop is just to add a few spaces in front of your types.
But I've adjusted the generator. Your error should be solved.
