Designed for writers of film, TV, and online scripted projects, DubScript is an industry-strength, open-standard screenplay editor with pro features.
Read Final Draft (.fdx) or Fountain script formats and edit in plain-text. Then output your auto-formatted screenplay to print, PDF, and .fdx.
NEW: Built-in Wellness Exam auto-scan for potential Fountain/format issues, screenplay "clams", red flags, etc.
NEW: Markdown text-format support (just open or save files ending in ".md")
Plain-text in. Screenplay out.
Create a new script and write naturally in the free-flowing plain-text editor -- without the "screenplay software formatting stuff" getting in your way.
Don't break your writing flow to manually format or indent characters, slug lines, parentheticals, or action
. Write uninterrupted-- scenes start with INT. or EXT, capitalize CHARACTER names, double-space between dialog.
In other words, make your screenplay look "screenplayish". The editor (900 fonts available) helps with auto-suggestions as you go.
Save direct to your device's storage- no online connection required. Or save to Drive, Box, and other cloud services.
Finished? With a single swipe, DubScript does the hard formatting for you! Indentation, page breaks, CONT'Ds, page numbering, margins, and text styling appear like magic!
Now you have a proper screenplay. But before you output a PDF or export to .fdx, add a quick title page. It's just as easy to add scene numbers, side-by-side dialogue, centered text, notes, and page breaks.
"Open" is good. Vendor "lock in" isn't.
DubScript supports Fountain markup, a popular, open standard for writing scripts in plain-text. This means your screenplay file is fully-compatible with any old plain-text editor. To exchange with other apps, just copy and paste. Or hit the Share button to forward yourself (or your agent) a quick off-device backup via an email or messaging app.
Learn more about Fountain markup at https://fountain.io -- including a list of compatible Fountain apps for Mac, iOS, Linux, and Windows.
