As I noted in an earlier post, I have used Word with styles to write hundreds of scripts and actually find it easier than the top screenwriting software. If you follow the instructions below you will turn Microsoft Word into a simple but effective screenwriting program. If you are familiar with screenwriting software such as Final Draft you know that what they basically do is make it easier to write scripts by automatically formatting script elements, fonts, paragraphs, etc. A style is simply a saved bundle of formatting instructions. Several of you have asked me for instructions on how to set up Microsoft Word “styles” for script writing.
