My old final draft had been bugged and I had to completely wipe the hard drive. I lost all of my files. I have scanned one of my screenplays into .rtf format but when I import it to FD, it aligns correctly and has the correct format other than everything is smaller and takes up significantly less pages. The screenplay went from 114 to approx 79 pages.

I tried font change and nothing works. I appreciate the tech help. I am using a mac with Leopard and FD8

I can't suggest anything just from that description of the problem. How'd you feel about emailing me some sample pages or the entire script so I can take a peek and play around with FD settings? Tho' I'm a Windows user, but I'm hoping that FD behaves identically on both platforms. [email protected] Discretion is assured.
