Default Theatre Script Formatting

I have sevearl versions of a theatre script (non-
copyright!) which I have combined all the best bits. They
all use various formatting, different fonts, line
spacing, etc. I have now combined my final script. How
can I make this script into a format of my choice without
having to change each individual page?

Default Theatre Script Formatting

You might try selcting all of the text (Alt + A) and changing the font and
size for starters. Then right click and select "paragraph", set it all to
left aligned, 0" indentation, spacing to "0 before" and 6 or 12 "after".
The spacing will keep lines within paragraphs (different characters in a
play maybe) together but then put space after the paragraph to make it
easier to read. Also set the line spacing to whatever you would like
(probably single if you choose to use spacing).

You may also use "styles" after this for chapter headings, etc.

Hope this helps
