I have recently found an anthology I want to submit to, and in their call for submissions they expressed a preference to “Shunn Manuscript formatting” and I am pretty sure they mean this.
I am not a typesetter or formatting genius, heck I’m doing good to keep my projects uniform (see the “Font beer-goggles” thread for proof of that)
Can someone that is proficient in these skills I’m weak on reassure me that Scrivener outputs this (or close to it) already? Bonus points for telling me what differences there are and how to address them.
A better question would be, “how do I adjust Scrivener’s Compile settings to produce the Shunn format?”
Or, even better, “I’m using the Manuscript Compile Format, but I actually need [thing that Shunn does differently]. How do I accomplish that?”
Which is to say that Scrivener’s Compile command can produce pretty much any output format you want, but it will be much easier for people to help you if you learn how the Compile command works first.
If you haven’t already, I’d recommend taking a look at our Interactive Tutorial, available from the Help menu, which has a good introduction.
