Step 0

pdf2text something.pdf

Step 1

greatSplitter.sh? i don't remember…

This "detects" rolltables from the input file, and splits them into seperate files

Step 2

fundrycleaner.sh dice|title|numbers|sort|lines|auto [inputFile] [outputFile]

recommended is auto, as that performes all changes

auto steps:

1. sort the file content base on the numbers that starts each line
2. Removes the numbers that sort used first step
3. changes dice marks into foundry html approved marks (makes it so you can click to roll, in the description field or on the popup/chat message that contains the rolltable result)

Step 3

fundryrolltable.sh ["inputfile"] ["Title"]

Step 4

create an empty rolltable in foundry, right click and import, upload JSON from step 3
