Is there a way to customize the names and/or flavor text on the power cards produced by the Character Builder? I'm running a non-fantasy game and a lot of the power names don't really work, and I'd love to be able to change them in the system and not have to write on the cards with a pen.

I know you can change names and flavor of items, so it seems reasonable that there may be a similar option for powers...

This should be a high priority.  It helps the RP elements immensely

This is possible, but involved.  I've put up the instructions on my blog:

Hope they help.

Looks intriguing.  Do you have to re-jigger it every time you re-save alterations to your character within the builder and if you re-load after an update?  Bit tricky if so but I back up my sheets as pdfs anyway.

Yes.

There might be some way to script up the search-and-replaces, but I personally haven't bothered too much with that side of it.
