About

monoscript

Screenplays are meant to be read on paper. They rarely arrive that way. monoscript takes a screenplay PDF and rebuilds it into clean, reflowable text in one continuous scroll β€” no pinch-zooming a shrunk-down page, no broken formatting, no losing your place every time your thumb moves. It keeps the script's own pagination. When someone says "look at the bottom of 42," page 42 is page 42. β€” Reformat the original, never fabricate. Margins, page numbers and structure are preserved; nothing is invented. β€” Highlight in four colours, add notes, and export your annotations as a formatted PDF or a plain-text digest. β€” Scene-by-scene navigation, a fast Find bar, four text sizes, light and dark, and a look at the original PDF whenever you want it. β€” Private by design. Everything stays on your device. No account, no analytics, no tracking. Nothing you read or annotate leaves your phone. β€” Refer back to the original PDF for comparison, anytime. Built by a working cinematographer who needed this and couldn't find it. The bundled sample screenplay is free to read in full. Imported screenplays are free to preview to page 10; a subscription or a one-time Lifetime purchase unlocks full reading of everything you import.
