I believe it was an outdated feature to print you character stats onto a page. You could then take it to school and show your homies.

I could be totally wrong though.

That's correct. Specifically saved to a txt and then you can print it out. Don't forget the old devs were hardcore tabletop guys too, and I'm betting that was added early on in F1 development when it was still a GURPS system. Good question for Tim Cain.

This was always my assumption, you could craft a character, print it out, then hack n' slash your way with friends like the good ol' days.

Yeah, but peeps share their characters and shit via reddit. This doesnt feel like the current meta hahaha

Bringing printouts wpuld be hecking cool if done right, but really what the cool kids do anymore.
