For Screenwriters Working In Google Docs
The Fountain+ Exporter for Google Docs is made for individuals who prefer to use Google Docs to get the job done — whether it's a personal choice or a collaborative effort.
The problem at hand is that we screenwriters using Docs are forced to write in the traditional screenplay format directly, and there are not many add-ons or extensions that assist in formatting well.
Fountain resolves most of that by its very nature. There are still a lot of gaps to fill when writing in the Fountain format, but at least with Fountain+ Exporter you can press a button and export to all the formats you need when you're ready to take your script elsewhere for any reason.
Convert To Other Formats
- Fountain to PDF — the industry-standard delivery format for producers, agents, and readers.
- Fountain to FDX — Final Draft's native format, the standard in writers' rooms.
- Fountain to Fade In — Fade In's native format, a cross-platform Final Draft alternative.
- PDF to Fountain — Go the other way and turn a PDF back to Fountain.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Fountain+ Exporter different from Fountainize, Screenplay Editor, or Fountain Tools?
The Fountain+ Exporter for Google Workspace is built on the same engine that powers the Fountain+ website, Fountain+ Studio, and Mangaplay — converting your screenplays in the browser.
That means it uses the same Fountain syntax to produce real .fdx, .pdf, and other file formats that open cleanly in Final Draft and other applications.
Is it paid or free?
It's free. There are no page caps, no per-export limits, and the engine is actively maintained by Pistol Taeja.
Will it work on feature-length scripts?
Yes. There is no page limit and no element cap. Feature scripts, pilots, limited series, and full-length manga all export in a single click.
What formats does it export to?
Final Draft (.fdx), Fade In (.fadein), Mangaplay (.mangaplay.md), Fountain (.fountain), industry-standard PDF, and plain text (.txt).
