Can’t get final draft 11 to work as it’s on an old Mac laptop and I’m using a windows PC. Are there any safe pirated copies of final draft I can use or are there better alternative to FD for PC?

    There is this thing called fountain that might peak your interest. Its kinda like markdown but specifically for screenwriters. There are many apps that work with it in different platforms. Personally i have used afterwriting but there are many apps available so look for one that you may like and works for your platform.

    Since fountain is just plain text you can export it and import it in any other fountain capable app. Hope this helps!

      This is really cool! Markdown is great, and this is a very interesting application of the underlying concepts to the format of screen writing.

      I wonder if there is something similar for things like legal documents or other documents with strict formatting.
