I'd like to be able to use my computer to create / print hero sheets of my custom-made heroes. At the end of the official document from FFG about creating your own heroes, there's a nice picture that looks exactly like the hero cards from the actual game. The problem is, however, in it's read-only .pdf form, I can't write / draw on it. Also, I don't have EXCEL, so I can't use programs which require that.

Does anyone know of a resource where you can enter custom hero information into the nice-looking FFG "card" and then print them?

Thanks!

Drop the official document as fast as you can. It is internally inconsistant, flawed in multiple ways and totally unbalanced. It is also pretty restricted.

Do a search on BGG for Antistone's HeroGen spreadsheet (v2.3, or maybe higher now).
It is far, far better balanced and creates a 'card' that lacks only a specialised hero picture. Even with something as flawed as Microsoft Word you can printscreen a picture of that and then paste your own hero art onto it.

If you aim for 360pts heroes (the official mean and median IIRC) when you are designing, give or take 5-10 points, then you will get heroes that are not ridiculously powerful or hopeless inadequate. They will be close to 'average' in theoretical power, but due to your design synergies will often be slightly better than the average hero and much more interesting.
