Beginner1 stepsMac

Before you start

  • You chose a file in Import Screenplay.

Steps

  1. Read the message. Click Paste Text Instead, or Close.

    The import says in plain words that the file could not be read. Older and other formats such as .doc, .rtf and .pages are not supported. Save the screenplay as Final Draft, Fountain or Word first, or paste its text. Your current project was not changed.

What you get

You know what to try next, and your project is untouched.
