The Print preferences panel is where you can manage options for printing your script or exporting it as a PDF.
Setting Your Preferences
Click the
...menu in the editor toolbar and select Print preferences...
You will see two tabs — All Scripts and Variety Scripts — making options clearer at a glance. Variety gets its own spacing and column settings, while All Scripts gathers the universal basics like color mode and title page inclusion.
📌 Note: Preferences are specific to you and will not apply to other people in your show.
The Options
All Scripts:
Text Color allows for color or black and white printing.
Pages allows to include your titles page(s) when printing.
Variety Scripts:
One-column layout generates a PDF that looks exactly like what you see in the script editor.
Two-column layout takes the script that you see in the editor and turns it into two columns in the PDF. All the bracketed multimedia elements appear in the left column. Speaker names, dialogue, and parentheticals — basically, everything that will go to the teleprompter – appears in the right column.
Right column line spacing lets you adjust the line spacing of the dialogue blocks. This option is ONLY applicable to variety scripts with the two-column layout.
💫 Note: One page in the editor won't necessarily translate to one printed page if you use the two-column layout.
Headers and Footers
You can customize the header and footers that appear on your scripts in the editor and when you print or export to PDF.
