Introduction
Exporting the script of a video that you've created enables you to see in PDF format all the content that your video includes.
This is very useful when you want to share the video content with someone without access to the SundaySky Video Platform or when you want to especially focus on the video's content in a more systematic way. As with all PDF documents, those reading the script can highlight the text as well as add their comments.
If your video does not include data or scene skipping, all the content is included in the video script.
If your video does include data or scene skipping, you have two options:
1. | You can create a viewer profile before exporting. The data and logic included in the video profile will be reflected in the script. |
2. | You can export the script without a viewer profile, thereby displaying the default content in every scene. |
Further to the options described above, it helps to remember that the content you see in the video preview is what is exported to the video script file.
Exporting the Video Script File
1. |
