- Masked relief map, TIFF, physical relief grayscale land relief, with white ocean areas.

- Corresponding outline versions of the map in Adobe Illustrator EPS format. The Illustrator file provide fully-editable outlines of this map, with each country placed on a separate layer for easy location and editing. Additional layers include rivers, major cities, graticules (lines of latitude and longitude), and scales. All long paths are split into smaller chunks - although Illustrator allows documents to have paths with more than 1,000 points, it will not print any fills applied to those paths, so areas with colored fills have been "tiled" to assist in printing. The Illustrator file also includes a layer into which one of the above corresponding relief maps can be placed. The Illustrator files can be placed directly into any draw or page layout application which accepts the EPS file format.

- Corresponding bitmap masks libraries for the above relief maps in TIFF format. These Photoshop files provide a collection of feature masks and a collection of country masks to be used in conjunction with this map. Each country featured in the map, whether fully or partially viewable, is included in the country mask library. The country mask allows the selection of a country taking advantage of Photoshop channels; a specific country may be selected for either in place editing or extracting from the main map and placed within its own separate map image. The feature masks library includes land/ocean mask, borders, rivers, major city locations, graticules lines of latitude and longitude, vignette and shadow masks; as for country masks, feature masks make use of Photoshop channels; a specific feature may be selected for either in place editing, such as colorizing rivers or the oceans, or extracting a feature from the main map and creating a new map image.

- Corresponding Photoshop Paths libraries for the above relief maps in JPEG format. The first Photoshop Path file provides paths for all features including land/ocean mask, borders, rivers, major city locations, graticules lines of latitude and longitude, vignette and shadow masks and a path for each country featured on the map; in addition, a second Photoshop Path file contains as separate paths all the text layers found in the EPS map: city name, country names, river names, island names, physical land and ocean features.

The TIFF and JPEG images are best used with image-editing applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Corel Photo Paint, but they can also be used within page layout and drawing applications, where color can be applied directly.

The compressed file sizes for the download are: Windows 10 Mb, Macintosh 16 Mb.

Final Draft 8 Professional Screenwriting Box

Final Draft 8 Professional Screenwriting Box at Software.com



Use your creative energy to focus on the content; let Final Draft take care of the style. Final Draft is the number-one selling application specifically designed for writing movie scripts, television episodics, and stage plays. It combines powerful word processing with professional script formatting in one self-contained, easy-to-use package. There is no need to learn about script formatting rules - Final Draft automatically paginates and formats your script to industry standards as you write.

Scene View
Outline your script ideas and reorder scenes in this high level overview.
With the Scene View you can look at your script from a 5,000 foot view and select, drag and drop one or more scenes to reorganize your ideas as you outline. Insert new scenes easily, and hide or show information important to you such as the scene's action, title and summary. Scene View also displays a scene's color so you can quickly identify one scene from another. Print your Scene View or just view it alongside the script. With a double-click you can sync the script to instantly go to any scene you've selected in Scene View.

Scene Navigator
Manage and view the important details of your scene in this sortable floating palette.
Manage the pace and flow of your story and keep track of up to 9 categories of information related to your scenes. The Scene Navigator is a sortable, customizable floating palette that displays details about your script such as a scene's title, color, page number, length and location, and best of all it syncs with the script with a single-click. As your script progresses, you can pick and choose the columns of information that are relevant for that phase of writing.

Scene Properties Inspector (SPI)
Add scene titles and colors to track your story lines, characters, etc.
Track data specific to each scene in this new floating palette such as the scene's story beats that will eventually make up the action, characters and dialog of the scene. Add and edit your scene's title such as 'Villain introduced', and add color to the scene to help you track elements like storylines, character arcs, and material you need to get back to later. Like the Navigator, the SPI will display the details of whatever scene you're working on in your script so that you have your summary notes handy as you need them.

Index Cards
Easily outline your story and restructure your script by dragging and dropping multiple scenes at a time.
This improved feature has double-sided cards that display the script's scene on one side and the summary on the other. The Summary View allows you to enter ideas directly into the index card such as your basic outline, notes, sequence or act markers, comments, locations, blocking... anything you need to build and organize your story. You can also color your Index Cards to help organize themes, character arcs, A and B stories, etc. Select and rearrange multiple cards at once if you need to reorder your scenes or print your Index Cards directly on 3x5 or 4x6 cards for use in the 'traditional' way if you want to visualize and organize scenes outside of the application. Double-clicking on a card in Split Panel View will automatically sync the scene selected with your script.

File Format (now XML)
Other software now works seamlessly with the new Final Draft .fdx file format.
Final Draft version 8 has a new file format that we have shared with a number of technology partners to make the writer's overall experience better. Now you can save to the new Final Draft file format in a variety of products. Your information can then be opened directly in Final Draft with perfect format and structure. No more reformatting in Final Draft and no more re-typing or lost information!

Keeps your script in sync with Index Cards and Scene View
Like most writers, you probably need to keep a lot of ideas at the front of your mind while you're writing. With the Panels System, you can split your screen into separate panels and view your script pages in one panel while you view another section of the script, your Index Cards or Scene View in the other panel. With the Panels System you can compare two scenes' dialog and pacing side by side even though they may be separated by a vast number of pages. If you want an overview of each scene, use the Index Cards or Scene View on one side and the script in the other. A double-click in any scene will keep the panels in sync.

Templates
Jumpstart your writing by using one of our built-in templates
Television show, screenplay, stage play and graphic novel templates are included to help get you started. Looking for an old series no longer on the air? The Final Draft Online Template Library is updated regularly and allows registered users to download additional templates directly from finaldraft.com.

Page Count Management
Now you have even more control about what fits on a page
Our new Leading Style in version 8 allows you to adjust the spacing of the entire script or you can select individual sections of text and adjust their spacing to help manage your page count.

Built-in Spell-Checking and Thesaurus
Now you have the ability to select an additional language
The vastly improved spell-checking engine comes with English (US) and a built-in thesaurus plus the option to install one of 15 additional language spell-checkers and thesauri. The application provides real time auto-spell check, catches capitalization errors and will assist you in finding synonyms. With definitions for 80,000 plus words from Merriam-Webster and a full thesaurus, you have all the tools at your fingertips. In addition, all the words you added to your user dictionary from version 7 will automatically populate your user dictionary when you install version 8.

Remember Workspace
No more searching for the correct draft you were just working on
It's important if you are working among multiple drafts to make sure that you are editing the correct one. With the new Workspace preference, you can have Final Draft open all the files you had open, in the order you were working on them, the last time you worked in Final Draft.

Final Draft Courier Font
An improved appearance helps your eyes during those long rewrite sessions
Having a consistent page count that production companies and studios can depend on to help them estimate their budgets is crucial when working on a script. That's why Final Draft offers its own font that will ensure proper pagination on both Windows and Macintosh. With version 8 we have made the font easier on the eye so you can better endure when you're writing for long periods of time.

Printing and PDF Options
Greater flexibility, more options and improved printing interface put you in the driver seat
Now, not only can you print your script in its entirety, you can choose which sets of revisions you want to print and you can print other views such as the Scene View and Index Cards. We've added the ability for you to print directly on 3x5 or 4x6 index cards and print your script directly to PDF so you can decide whether to send a full script or subset of pages to someone via PDF. The Title Page is also conveniently available as an option to include in your PDF or printed output.

Writing Management
Track your daily writing goals
Use the Statistics Report to check how much content you've completed in a writing session to help you manage your writing goals. You can also track things such as your ratio of Action to Dialog and whether there may be some unnecessary profanity in your script if you're attempting to 'clean it up.'

Breakdown your script and prep it for scheduling applications
This updated stand-alone application reads any Final Draft script and enables you to "tag" elements within the script [cast, costumes, props, etc.] and export the results into most scheduling applications. Tagger allows you to select text from the script and add any element with a click of the mouse in any category for that scene - or for any or all scenes where that element appears. The element text is highlighted and color coded, and can be customized to suit the way you like to work. Created with the help of veteran Assistant Directors, Producers and Unit Production Managers, Tagger means no more going over a paper script again and again with highlighters.

Easy-to-use tools for handling script changes once you go into production
From the ability to omit scenes, lock pages and A-pages as well as set your revision colors, version 8 provides you all the tools you'll need to take your script through production. With version 8, we've created a new feature that will automatically track the page header's revision color so you can issue one set of revisions or all of them as needed. Merging pages that have been cut once a script is locked is also a snap. With new how-to tutorials, you have step-by-step instructions on how to merge pages without affecting your overall page count. Final Draft also includes standard revision colors in each film and television template.

Total Savings Report

The GreenPrint Home version is perfect for any individual who wants to eliminate the frustration and waste of unwanted pages and have a positive environmental impact right in their own homes. GreenPrint is a simple idea, but it solves a problem nearly everyone can relate to: The ubiquitous wasted page. This is the page with just a URL, banner ad, legal disclaimer, etc. These wasted pages occur many times a day littering homes and offices around the world and wasting money, trees, and time.

PDF and Save a Bundle. GreenPrint provides a simple solution to printing to PDF. This preserves the document format including web pages without wasting paper. This PDF writer is also incorporated into the print preview so any document can easily be saved to file (after eliminating wasted pages) rather than being printed. For most users, this will also eliminate the need to buy a separate PDF writer such as Adobe Acrobat which can retail for up to $499.

Evergreen Font
GreenPrint's EverGreen font reduces paper use by as much as 20% while also saving ink and toner. EverGreen's characters were designed to allow more words to fit on each printed page without compromising readability. Compared with common fonts such as Arial, Times New Roman and Helvetica, EverGreen reduces paper use by 15-20%.

Track Your Impact. GreenPrint integrates a reporting function that allows users to easily monitor their printing habits in order to quantify the dollars and pages the software has saved.

A Win/Win Solution. GreenPrint is unique in that it saves time and money while benefiting the environment, rather than trading off cost reduction and environmental friendliness. We hope this win/win outcome will help to fundamentally shift the way individuals view gre
