We currently have a working chat log, but currently it goes to .txt files that can be edited. Is there a way to make a mod that converts those files somehow to .pdf files, so the integrity of chat files can be trusted, for example as proof for drama threads? |

Hole in plan: Someone could not use this mod, edit their chat files when they're text files, then turn them into PDF files themselves so you'll trust them. Actual reason for not wanting it: I use chat logs mostly for my own convenience, and having to open up a bulky PDF reader to view one would be annoying as hell. |

I mean that they're written or converted real-time. I'm not saying that they are converted using some add-on at will- it just happens. Any file, maybe. |
