How do I save or backup a file in Final Draft?

When saving a script for the first time:

1. Choose File > Save and the standard Save As dialogue appears;
2. Navigate to the location where the file is to be saved;
3. Type the name of the script into the Save As name field;
4. Click Save.

Every subsequent time you want to save your file, you can choose File > Save or use the Save button in your customizable Toolbar:

You can also press Command + S (Mac) or Ctrl+S on your keyboard and Final Draft saves the file.

On Mac only, in addition to saving your script, you can also create a back up document:

1. Choose File > Backup. The standard Save dialogue appears with the file’s name and today’s date added;
2. Navigate to the folder where the backup will be kept;
3. Click Save.

The script will be saved and the month, day and year will be appended to the end of the file name.
