Compiling a short story

Scrivener Scrivener for macOS
1

I’m trying to figure out how to compile a short story into standard manuscript format, requiring the first page the start with my mailing address and other contact information, then word count, then about a third of the way down the page. Is there any automated way to do this from within Scrivener?

I could probably add the info manually after the file is compiled, but that seems un-Scrivener-like.

Thanks!

Hi,

Take a look at the “Short Story” template in the “Fiction” category of the new project chooser. This is set up to export a short story to standard manuscript format.

Hope that helps.

All the best,
Keith

Ah. Should have thought of that. Thanks!
