I convert PDF files to CBDS files all the time. Strategy guides are pretty entertaining to read and I sometimes even read from games I've never played

Let me just find the strategy guide and I'll pm you when I'm done converting it.

Or.. maybe you could teach us how to do it ourselves? just saying

I want to learn how to do this.. ;-;

Sure. First you need a program that converts all the pages in the PDF file to pictures. Here I use either 'Ap PDF to IMAGE' or 'PDF2Image v2.0'.
You'll get some nice high resolution pictures of all the pages. From there you need 'Pictods'. Here I usually just take one of the pages to experiment
with the 'Width' and 'Height' settings in options till I get a good readable result. Once I get the right size, I add the folder with all the pictures I extracted earlier and convert.
 
Guides are good to look at if you can appreciate the artwork in my opinion, but if you ruin the story by looking at it early then that's just lazy. Sadly Dark Dawns puzzles are not that hard to figure out, I only bought my guide so I could get a 100% save after I had already beaten the game once.

Wow, has gamers degraded so much they can't figure puzzles out anymore?


I used guide because its very entertaining to read and im collecting it and here in the philippines its so hard to find game guides and when you ordered game guides to internet its so expensive so i download game guides to internet..i used game guides after i finished the game to look if theres something that i missed just like in dq9 the treasure map because its so hard to find for me..game guide is good and i love it..=D
