D&D Basic Rules PDF Parser

Wow, that was painless, now I just need to figure out how to use Par5e for the rest of it.

I had a problem parsing the equipment, PAR5E doesn't like fractions and prefers decimals

Valeros, they released an update. All you have to do is change in your xslt transform to make <class>reference_npc</class> into <class>npc</class>. They just removed that reference_npc or something.

They also added a separate <legendaryactions> grouping just like <actions> and <reactions>

my transform for the index part looks like the below

<npcIndex>
		<index>
				<xsl:for-each select="root/Monster">
					<xsl:element name="{translate(./Name,' ,:()/\+-','')}">
						<listlink type="windowreference">
							<class>npc</class>
							<recordname>npc.Descriptions.<xsl:value-of select="translate(./Name,' ,:()/\+-','')"/>@5E Monsters MM</recordname>
						</listlink>		
						<name type="string"><xsl:value-of select="translate(./Name,',:()/\+-','')"/></name>
					</xsl:element>
				</xsl:for-each>
	 	</index>
	</npcIndex>

What file do I have to modify to fix the reference_npc error mentioned above? What is xslt transform?

Doesn't seem to be working for me. When I press the button I get an exception error with the following details:

See the end of this message for details on invoking

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Does the same thing with me. I tried it on two separate computers and installed .NET 4.5.2 on both of them.

What version is listed in the errors you're seeing? The post above lists "Version=4.0.0.0" which won't work.

The funny thing is that the error lists version 4.0, but when I tried to install the 4.5 .NET version linked in this thread I got message that I already had that installed. Then I googled "4.5 .net" and found 4.5.2 that I installed but I still get the same error message when trying to parse.

Did you try running Window's Update after the install? The install version is likely old.

[5tra7]

I now did the Window's update but the same problem still exists..

Do you have an option to uninstall Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 in Windows Control Panel -> Programs and Features? If so, try uninstalling that.
