Can I import a PDF of my script into Shot Lister?

You are not able to import a PDF of your script into Shot Lister.


However, you can convert your PDF into a .FDX or .Fountain file using https://www.writerduet.com  (sign up for a free account). Then import that file into Shot Lister through email or dropbox. 


Please note that sometimes the conversion will include a txt suffix as well as the ftn. For example: myscript.fountain.txt - just delete the txt from your file name when you save it and it should import fine.


Also some users have reported that when using Chrome they sometimes have difficulty exporting a .fountain file from WriterDuet. Just switch to Safari and this should solve your issue.
