Uploading documents
This article covers the web app.
The Documents page is where production paperwork lives. Upload a script here first, and you can then pull its scenes and characters straight into the project.
Uploading a document
- Open Documents and click Upload.
- Set the Document Type. Script is the only type for now.
- On episodic projects, pick the Episode this document belongs to.
- Drop a file onto the upload area, or click to browse. PDF and FDX (Final Draft) files are accepted, up to 100MB.
- Click Upload. The document appears as a card on the Documents page.
FDX files come straight from Final Draft. A clean FDX export usually reads better than a PDF, since the scene headings and character names are already structured.
Working with documents
Each card shows the file name, upload date, type, and, on episodic projects, the episode. Click a card to select it. Select one card to open its actions, or several to archive or unarchive in one go. Sort the page by newest, oldest, or file name from the Sort menu.
Uploading and importing are restricted to admins and owners.
Once a script is uploaded, you can extract its scenes and characters. See Importing scenes from a script.
