description |
The command :FountainFlow (or :FF) converts properly configured Fountain screenplay files into HTML compatible with LibreOffice.
After conversion, tap <enter> and the HTML becomes a fully formatted screenplay in LibreOffice.
Finish by loading page styles from an included template, which will start proper page numbering on page 2 of the script, while skipping over a title page and optional synopsis.
Fully configurable. Builds list from title page info, which can be arranged through a template.
Example output, Big Fish regenerated from sample Fountain file:

All Fountain syntax supported, with just one limitation on dual dialogue (one line of dialogue per character). See http://fountain.io/syntax

install details |
After unzipping the file, drop the plugin and the help file into their respective folders (plugin and doc).
Folders containing templates can be put anywhere, as long as the settings are adjusted to reflect their location.
The script relies entirely on Vimscript and regex, so there should not be any issues with different platforms and configurations. |
