Print Enhancer for D&D Beyond

Modernized and restored for D&D Beyond 2026 site changes. This extension helps you print your D&D Beyond character sheets in a clean, print-friendly format.

Credits: This project is a fork of the abandoned D&D Beyond Character Sheet Print Enhancer by Adam Pritchard, with significant updates for modern site compatibility and new features. I made this project because I wanted print-ready character sheets for my D&D games without having to manually edit or create the PDF.

This project is a work in progress. Feature requests, issue reports and pull requests are welcome.

  6. Custom Asset Upload: Upload your own image files (PNG, WebP, etc.) to use as custom shapes.
  7. Section Cloning: Create snapshots of sections like Spells to show different filtered lists (e.g., "Combat" vs "Social") simultaneously.
  8. Dynamic Extraction: Double-click any block of content (traits, features, actions) to extract it into its own floating, resizable card.
  9. Compact Mode: One-click condensed view for complex sections to maximize information density.

  16. Shape Rotation: Persistent 15-degree incremental rotation for all decorative shapes with visual handles.
  17. Quick Switch: Swap shape assets while perfectly preserving position, size, and rotation.

Known issues

  1. The extension does not work on mobile browser devices nor the D&D Beyond mobile app.
  2. The extension is not meant to let you edit your character sheet nor throw dices. Only the SPELL section "Manage spells" should be usable.
  3. Spell description sheets can ONLY gather information from the original "known spells" of D&D Beyond. The tool mitigates this by saving previously known spells. However, if a description was never seen before, it will not be available.

About

This tool transforms the interactive, tabbed D&D Beyond character sheet into a condensed, printer-friendly format. It solves the problem of "hidden" content in tabs (Actions, Spells, Equipment) by expanding them into a single fully customized layout view.
