Exporting a Manuscript
Exporting a manuscript is a straightforward process that takes only a few clicks.
First, you need to go to ''Manuscript'':
Clicking on it will show you two options, and once you choose one, a new window will pop up on your screen:
As shown in the screenshot above, you can export it as a PDF or docx, to Google Drive, and lastly, to Amazon Manuscript. Dropbox will be included in our future updates, so don't worry!
You can export your entire manuscript or specific chapters, as well as the Chapter Notes and even Elements of your manuscript. All you need to do is select what you'd like to export specifically and then click on the ''Export'' button at the bottom right.
You will be able to find your exported file in your Downloads folder.
Where can I find my downloaded manuscript on my computer?
