I am attempting to export my manuscript (entire) to a Word document to submit to a publisher. When I go through the export process it exports my file to multiple folders making it impossible to then submit. The folders are also in the wrong order. I am not familiar with the export to word process so am most likely doing something wrong. I have the latest Scrivener version 3.2.3. I also don’t want to include all the chapters so need to be able to select some and not others. Could someone walk me through the process?
You are using the wrong function. You do not want to export your constituent files (which is what the Export function does). What you are wanting to do is compile you constituent text files into a single resultant file (docx, as it happens). The function you are looking for is called Compile.
You might want to check out Lit & Lat’s video tutorials on compile to get a sense of how that process goes.
