Using External Character Generators

Does anyone know of a way by which one can make an external character generator available to players in a Roll20 game? I'm about to start a new WFRP game and would like to use the WFRP Foundry to create the characters (both PC & NPC) but its an external progamme, which I have installed on my desktop.  I just wondered if its possible to somehow give my players access to it via Roll20 so that they can roll their own characters, rather than having to do it for them, which would be a bit disenfranchising.

No, unfortunately there's no way to link up external generators in roll20. Your only real option is to have them use the generators outside roll20 and manually copy everything to the roll20 sheet.
Thanks! I thought that would be the case.  I was mainly the hoping that I could involve them directly in the character generation (e.g. letting them click the choose and click buttons), but it seems without sending them all a copy of the app I'm going to have to do it for them.
