00:00:07,220 --> 00:00:12,160
then Export, then PDF Preview shows the screenplay exactly as

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:15,860
it will look as a PDF: title page, page numbers,

5
00:00:15,860 --> 00:00:21,120
header and footer, continuation marks, revision asterisks. Leaf through before

PDF” contains only the screenplay. “Visible Notes” puts small references

00:00:38,780 --> 00:00:41,840

Draft’s format and the usual way to give a screenplay

00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,680
to other programs or to a production. File, then Export,

14
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:57,400
then As FDX (dot F D X) writes text, paragraph

00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,180
types, title page, scene numbers and, as far as the

16
00:01:01,180 --> 00:01:05,380
target program knows them, notes and revisions. Fountain is a

imports FDX, Fountain, TXT, DOCX, RTF and PDF. With FDX

22
00:01:30,350 --> 00:01:35,500
Federio Dramatize takes over paragraph types, title page, sheet size,

23
00:01:35,500 --> 00:01:41,520
notes and revisions. With Fountain, TXT, DOCX and RTF Federio

00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,400
Dramatize recognises headings, characters and dialogue by their patterns; check

00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,640
the paragraph types afterwards, best with the format assistant. Try

00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,620
these tools on a copy of your screenplay. Keep what

00:01:53,620 --> 00:01:56,240
