Anybody using Celtx? I started drafting a screenplay on it only to find that the formatting was all screwed up, it was using two pages to print what should have gone on one. Anybody have a procedure for fixing that?

Have you got this version (http://www.filmmaker.com/node/17894)? They list their bug fixes. Don't know if that helps. I have been busy doing my course and haven't used Celtx for a while.

Yeah, it's definitely the new version. Hmmm... I wonder if I've got something screwed up somewhere else on my puter that's effecting it.

Hope you get it sorted. You know far more about this sort of thing than I do.
Could it have downloaded wrong?

Everything works except printing. Instead of printing everything that's supposed to be on one page on a single page, it prints a new page for two lines, and then starts another new page for the next actual page worth of material. I don't know, seems like a setting somewhere that's not quite right.

Does your printer work okay with other programs?

Last year I was using a different paper to what I normally use and my printer didn't like it. It kept doing the things you have just described. It was a right pain and wasted a lot of paper. I had to clean the printer heaps of times but the problem would keep coming back. In the end I ran out of that paper and bought my old brand and things returned to normal.

It might not be the printer in your case but I thought I'd mention it on the off chance.
