Yes, I can help
(NOTE: I do not know what you can do with Cute PDF. But you ought to see the
Include Title Page option. With the Final Draft script open, click FILE | PRINT... You ought to see the print dialog. In the lower right you see the option for the title page.)
In any case, here is a solution that will work:
STEP 1: Download the
free PrimoPDF.
STEP 2: Download
my article on using PrimoPDF to join two files.
STEP 3: Use the instructions in my short, illustrated article to see how to create a single PDF by creating, first, the title page and then appending a PDF of the script to it.
To explain the steps in a nutshell:
You "print" the title page with a name, any name, like
MyTitlePage.pdf.
Then you "print" the script and use the
same name as the title page, but you use the APPEND function within PrimoPDF to join the the second file to the first. You are creating a second PDF with the same name and appending it to the end of the first:
MyTitlePage {really the title page} + MyTitlePage {really the script}
You have to use the same name. After you join the two, you can rename the PDF file to anything you want. It works. I just walked somebody through this on Done Deal Pro a few days ago.
IMPORTANT: When you use Final Draft to print the
script to PDF with drivers like PrimoPDF, you have to
uncheck the
Include Title Page option. If you do not uncheck it, you will only get the title page, for some reason.
PrimoPDF will install itself as a "printer" in your printer list. When you go to print your title page and script, click PRINT. This takes you to the Final Draft print dialog window. Select PrimoPDF from the list of printers. You will also see a place to check/uncheck the option to
Include Title Page.
