Yeah, that's definitely a feature. I've often used something like Hero Lab or savaged.us to create a PC, copy the statblock, paste it in with NPC maker and then convert it to a PC direct. I usually have to do a bit of cleanup, but it's a lot easier than doing it all by hand! One of my favorite things about this extension.

Note that it works both ways and you can drag a PC character sheet to NPCs and it will create an NPC version for you.

I get the error message:

I am creating NPCs while I am traveling in a Note Keeping app and would like to add them to FG using NPC Maker. What kind of template could I use for that so that it is working?

I think it's because you have no dice in those skills (such as Occult).
Try it in this format:
Caveman
Attributes: Agility d8, Smarts d6, Spirit d6, Strength d8,
Vigor d6
Skills: Climbing d6, Fighting d6, Lockpicking d6, Notice
d6, Stealth d8, Survival d8, Throwing d6.
Pace: 6; Parry: 5; Toughness: 5
Gear: Club (Str+d6), throwing stones (Str+d4, Range:
3/6/12).
Special abilities:
• Low Light Vision: The Caveman ignore the Dark and
Dim Light modifiers.Last edited by ProfDogg; May 14th, 2020 at 12:04.

If someone else needs a template:
Everything inside quotation marks needs to be deleted together with the quotation marks. They just show what could be written there. Every X needs to be filled. Skills that have no number after the d will be ignored. This seems to work so far
"Name"
Parry: X
Pace: X
Toughness: X(X)
Attributes: Agility dX, Smarts dX, Spirit dX, Strength dX, Vigor dX
Skills: Academics d, Athletics d, Battle d, Boating d, Common Knowledge d, Driving d, Electronics d, Faith d, Fighting d, Focus d, Gambling d, Hacking d, Healing d, Insight d, Intimidation d, Language d, Notice d, Occult d, Performance d, Persuasion d, Piloting d, Repair d, Research d, Riding d, Science d, Shooting d, Spellcasting d, Stealth d, Survival d, Taunt d, Thievery d, Weird Science d
Hindrances:
"Hindrances divided with commas for example: Ugly, Vow, Wanted"
Edges:
"Edge Names divided with commas for example: Elan, Marksman"
Gear: "Gears divided with commas and in brackets () damage for example: Sword (Str + d6), Bow (2d6, Range: 10/20/40)"
Powers:
"Powers divided with commas for example: Bolt, Confusion"Last edited by ChoTimberwolf; May 14th, 2020 at 13:12.

Try this. It's just a matter of getting the formatting pretty much the way Pinnacle lays them out. I also just now learned that the Special Abilities need some fluff text or NPC Maker ignores them.
Code:Batu ist der untote Depositua Attributes: Agility d6, Smarts d6, Spirit d6 (+2), Strength d12, Vigor d12 Skills: Athletics d4, Fighting d12 (+2), Intimidation d8, Notice d8 (-1), Riding d6 Toughness: 14(4), Pace: 5, Parry: 13(5) Edges: Improved Trademark Weapon, Mighty Blow Equipment: Plate [Armor +4], Shield [Cover -4, Parry +3], Great Sword (d12+d8) Special Abilities: Undead: +2 Toughness; +2 to recover from being Shaken; No additional damage from called shots; Immune to poison and disease. No wound penalties.
