This will have (CONTINUED) appear on the bottom right corner of your Script pages where scenes will continue onto the next page (above the page number, if this is enabled). To indicate whether a scene continues across a page, select the checkbox beside "Across Page Breaks". *Please note that while MORE and CONT'D are industry standard, you can customize these by editing the text field for each, if these options are turned on. This can be done by selecting the checkbox beside "Within a Page". You can also use this function in a similar way if your character's dialogue is separated by a description within a single page, by adding CONT'D after the character's name appears the second time. This can be done by selecting the checkbox beside "Across Page Breaks". If your dialogue continues across multiple pages, you may want to indicate this by having MORE appear at the bottom of the first page, and using CONT'D following the name of the character as the dialogue begins on the second page. If the checkbox for "Before Act" is selected, each new Act will begin on a new page. Line spacing choices are 51 (normal) and 53 (tight) for US Letter, and 56 (normal) and 58 for A4. Select whether your Script is created on US Letter sized pages (8.5" x 11") or on A4 sized pages (8.25" x 11.75"). *Please note that page numbers begin on page 2, as per industry standard, and that including a Title Page will not alter this count. If this checkbox is selected, you'll be able to edit where the Page Numbers appear in your script via the Edit > Headers & Footers menu.

This option allows you to determine whether your script can include page numbers. There are several options available for customization via the Script Settings Menu: You'll find the option to edit these settings under the "Edit" dropdown. This will leave a page number of the first page (page 0), the first script page (page 1), and begin putting regular page numbers on the next page (page 2).For your Screenplay and Stageplay Scripts, you'll have the option to customize the Settings for each project.


You may use TABS to move to the right like you would on a regular word processor. Write whatever you want but understand that you'll have to hit return at the end of lines if you want to move to the next line. This will let you type whatever you want however you want because you have effectively turned Screenwriter's auto-formatting off.
