Beginner2 stepsMac

Before you start

  • The preview shows the pages you want, or a saved snapshot is open.

Steps

  1. Click Export PDF in Setup. With a snapshot open, click Export PDF in the snapshot bar.

    Export PDF is greyed out while there is nothing to preview.

  2. Read the Export Sides sheet, then click Export… and choose a place for the file in the Mac save panel.

    The sheet says: Only the selected scenes, in screenplay format, with the draft name on every page. It names the source and shows a suggested file name that includes the project, the day and the date. A note says: Sides are a snapshot of the screenplay source. Editing the PDF never changes the screenplay. Private notes excluded. Cancel closes the sheet.

What you get

You have a PDF of the day's script pages.

Watch out for

  • The PDF is a copy. Editing it never changes the screenplay.
