I'm looking to buy the hard cover book (I like physical books), and I know there has been errata, and I'd like to get a copy of the book with all of that updated in the print copy. What is the latest printing number, and what was the date it was printed on? Thanks for help answers, this will help me purchase the book from a local retailer.

I don't believe any copy of the print book reflects any errata. Nor does the PDF for that matter.

PDF is getting updates. I forget what all has made it in, but there was a wording change about how spirits perceive when manifested that was a difference.
-
Catalyst is making corrections to later printings without addressing the errata. That is part of what makes these debates difficult since two people may have different printings and thus different text.

Thanks all for the replies. So what it sounds like (From reading elsewhere as well), that the PDF is getting updates, and the print copies, generally aren't, or at least not getting all of the errata the PDFs are. So as much as I want the print copy, at this point, it would make more sense to save 20+ bucks and just get the PDF. Sad, I really wanted the print copy, but thank you all for the information!

I *think* that the current print version does reflect some of the initial errata...they updated the PDF last Christmas (IIRC) as part of a reprint.

Yeah, I'd suggest not buying anything hard-copy until fixes are put into place. No clue when that'll happen, though.

Are these things announced anywhere?

DriveThruRPG tells you when your PDFs update? Can't say for anywhere else.

I have always gotten emails when they send out a new PDF version
