Anyone have a some nice, higher res, transparent, images of the dice symbols? Asking for a couple project ideas.

You can fake it with screen caps and the pdf but I'm not sure how to set white as transparent.

Yeah I got the one at the back of the beta manual. I was just hoping for some cleaner images

Actually the best ones I found were from the front of the book in the text about what they mean. They are a tiny vector graphic of some sort that while I couldn't get out of the pdf as such I was able to zoom in some silly 4000% to fill the screen.

The ones in the back are pretty good if you do one side per picture. Tedious but the quality is to notch. Same situation as the text symbols. They are a vector of some flavor so you can zo0m in on one 12 sided faceing to 1600% if you click full screen mode.

Yeah page 11 right? Photoshop time I guess

That looks like the one. I used page 11 and 12 to take them out of the text but the dialog box should work good as well.

They are bound in as a vector font. While I wasn't able to liberate said font... I blew them up to filling the screen, pasted them into a font editor, auto traced the captured 800+ px bitmaps, and put them in my "dumping ground" font - it's got symbols for a bunch of different games in the private use area.

Not yet... I've not put it into a font I'll release.

Give me a few days to migrate it. I need to double check and put them both in suitable alpha range, as well as the same points as FFG put them in, so quotes work...
