The finished character *** can be exported to pdf, or html.

Except that PCGen only supports the core books - which was one of the
things the OP was complaining about.

There was, at one time, a collection of data sources put out by Code
Monkey that covered many (but not all) of the additional source books.
But Wizards yanked the license from them, so it's no longer available.

So, how does HeroForge get away with using copyrighted materials?

From what I understand, by leaving the feat details *very* vague, to the
point where, IIRC, only the bonuses are provided, with no fluff at all.
