Screenplay software?

tacomantt · 06-28-03, 07:58 PM

Does anyone know of good screenplay software? There seems to be so many, but they seems to offer the same things.
"Final Draft" seems to be the way to go, but I am unsure.

I dont mind paying, but I do remember a while back a thread asking similar advice. The result was a DVDTalker posting a MS word template. He said to use it for starters.

Any help?

I use a Word template called Screenstyler, available for free here: http://www.screen2screen.com/

I've never used Final Draft, but Screenstyler does everything I want it to.

Final draft would be my suggestion. It's what I have used in the past
