Final Draft is the industry format. Every tool that touches scripts has to handle FDX, and most handle it badly. The JMNPR FDX Converter does it losslessly: dual dialogue, revision marks, locked scene numbers, formatting runs, custom transitions — all of it round-trips against Final Draft and WriterDuet production fixtures.
Free forever. No tier. No upsell. Public infrastructure.
Hundreds of element-level edge cases. Snapshot tests against hand-verified screenplay fixtures. Validates against the FDX 12 schema on output. The conversion engine is the same one that powers Arqo — battle-tested in a shipping product, then extracted as a free public tool.
