Streamline™ is a feature that helps you give your screenplay an extra polish before sending it out the door. Streamline examines a document for places where word changes or edits will reduce the total number of pages in the document. NOTE: Prior to version 6.5, Streamline was an add-on plug-in software program for Movie Magic Screenwriter.
Streamline turns hours of manual drudgery into minutes or seconds of automated work. Streamline gives you a way to shorten your document without cheating!
How does Streamline do it? Streamline scours a document for page-saving opportunities by going through the document, word by word, looking for places that benefit from fine-tuning. We call this process iterative pagination. Streamline collates, prioritizes, and presents the results in a window. Each chance to shorten your document identifies where it is by page and paragraph number, as well as shows the word highlighted in context of the material surrounding it. Streamline suggests what to do with the word and may even display a list of possible synonyms.
In addition to the powerful single-pass through the document option, Streamline can make multiple passes through the document to maximize the potential for reducing the document’s page count. This puts unheard of power at a writer’s fingertips.
