Would be pretty epic if you could somehow allow the save files from Hero Lab or PCGen to be uploaded and parsed to be a displayable character sheet. Couple of button clicks, boom-chucka-lucka, character sheet all pretty and shiny-like on the site :)

Would be great if it was done like DMgenie, where you just copy and pasted the stat block... Done!

Here is what it looks like pasted into the description block of a new character;
"Shylent Test":https://alfaysia.obsidianportal.com/characters/shylent-test
Here is the same character, EXPORTED to html, opened with chrome, and taken a screenshot of;
"Shylent Main":https://unconquered-kingdoms.obsidianportal.com/characters/shylent
So your call, I use HeroLab, but its looking like a straight export and paste into a character field doesn't work (for me).

While it is a ways down the line for me, its good to know what I'll have to do to use Hero Lab with OP. Still alot easier than my fancy, manually entered Sheets on Shadows. While they look gorgeous (thanks PhoenexMark) they turned out to be more work to maintain than I planned on and therefore were not as up to date as I would have liked. Using HeroLab for my next campaign, even with this open, screenshot, post screen shot technique, I should be able to keep my PC's sheets on the site up to date weekly.

I start with outputting the hero stat block to html and then using pandoc from the command line as:
bc. pandoc --from=html --to=textile -o output.txt input.html
where input.html was the html file and output.txt is the converted textile file that can be cut and paste into obsidian portal -after plus and minus characters are fixed.-
Shylent – created with Hero Lab®
If the output also includes these (which I am certain it probably does) they should also be removed:
Outside of that, comparing the two results that were presented I think the rest of it could (potentially) be cleaned up with a bit of CSS on the back end. I am not positive how exactly the actual output file looks. If someone were willing to send me over a raw file I might be able to figure out something a little more specific.

Totally possible in theory, but a moderately epic task.
