FAQ: why the pgn4web game text does not print the capture x, the promotion = and the check + PGN signs?

The graphical look and feel of pgn4web is inspired by the layout of chess informant publications that omit the capture x, the promotion = and the check + signs. This allows for a minimalist, compact and easy to read game display.

In general terms, pgn4web is a PGN viewer and as such its output does not necessarily has to strictly follow the PGN export specification; however most PGN reader should be able to process reasonably well the minimalist pgn4web game text output.

This default pgn4web behavior can be overridden in order to display those extra sign by patching/redefining the function CleanMove(move) { ...} in file pgn4web.js; see inine code comments for more details.
