Moving work between Scriptr and other apps
Fountain, Word, PDF, plain text and Markdown move your writing to and from other screenplay and writing apps.
Bringing work in
| From | Use |
|---|---|
| A screenplay app such as Final Draft, Highland or WriterDuet | Export Fountain from that app, then import it into Script. |
| Plain text | Import .txt into Script or Story. |
| Markdown | Import .md or .markdown into Story. |
Taking work out
| To | Export |
|---|---|
| Final Draft, Highland and other screenplay apps | Fountain |
| Word or Google Docs | Word |
| Readers, producers and competitions | |
| An AI assistant | Structured Markdown or Hand off to an agent |
A round trip
Fountain keeps bold, italic and underline, so a screenplay exported and imported again keeps its emphasis. Other formats are for taking work out; importing them back isn’t promised to be lossless.
