| There was only one book published for the Italian version, the Talislanta Guida del Viaggiatore by a company called 3d6. It was based off the 3e Talislanta rules by Wizards of the Coast. Marques recently posted a link for the archived Talislanta in Italiano website and using that, and eBay Italy, as a reference, I was able to deduce it was based off the 3e Talislanta rules. The Italian website has links to several of the old Talislanta websites that were based off the 3e rules.

Missing: This Title Is Not Yet Available
This project relies solely on community contributions. If a book is missing it means we have been unable to obtain it yet. We are always actively looking for new folks to scan these titles. Unfortunately it is a slow process.
Stage 1: Receiving & Processing
The files have been received from the scanner. When scanned, pages often alternate between right-side-up and upside-down as well as out of order. So at this stage files are rotated, renamed, properly organized, and prepared for distribution to volunteers of The Scanning Project.
Stage 2: Scanning Project Limbo
At this point the book has been released on the website. It has a basic set of bookmarks and can be referenced 100%. The paper color is most likely dirty white which makes it less than desirable for printing purposes, both aesthetically and in regards to ink/toner consumption, and the PDF is not OCR’ed. The process of OCR’ing a PDF is extremely time extensive and can only be performed once. Given that the community has voted image processing is very important, OCR’ing will be held off until image processing is finished. In the event nobody volunteers to process the images for this PDF then the book will never receive OCR’ed text or be printer friendly. If you would like to help or learn more visit The Scanning Project.
Stage 3: OCR & Bookmarks
Image processing has been completed and the PDF is ready to have OCR applied and extensive bookmarks added. All PDF’s will be given a set of semi-extensive bookmarks which are defined as follows; Table of contents, introduction, chapters, sub-sections, character sheet(s), and index. In certain cases important tables or especially viable information will also be marked. Bookmarks will be nested so that folks who prefer lighter bookmarks can still enjoy this feature of the PDF.
Final Version
The PDF is in its final version. The book looks as good and professional as we could get it, has as close to 100% OCR functionality as was possible, and extensive bookmarks. No more work is planned for this title in the future. If you think we have missed something please do not hesitate to bring it to our attention.
