How do I combine files?

Final Draft allows you to create a new script containing the currently-open script and additional selected scripts:

1. If it has not already been saved, save the currently-open script;
2. Go to Tools > Combine Files;
3. A standard Mac Open dialogue will be displayed;
4. Navigate to the location containing the desired FDX script files;
5. Select the desired file(s).  To select multiple files, Command + click on each one:

    

6. When all desired files have been selected, click Combine;
7. The File Order window containing the names of the selected files will be displayed; if necessary drag them into the order in which they should appear in the new script:

8. Click Create New File.

A new document will be created containing the first script and the selected scripts in the chosen order.  Each successive section begins on its own page.  In addition, the Title Page (Document > Title Page) contains the names and starting page numbers of the scripts that have been added to the first script:

This is a new, untitled document and should be saved with a unique file name.

If additional writing is to be done in this combined script, the SmartType lists should be rebuilt in order to eliminate repetitive typing.

Go to Document > SmartType and rebuild all of the SmartType lists.

Note: in FD10 and older, this feature is not available. You can copy/paste all of your existing documents into one new master document.
