Somebody help me out. I'm all tied in knots over this.
I'm near enough finished with the first draft of my latest failure and am trying to work out how much trimming is required. When I pull up the Print Preview in RoughDraft I'm being told the screenplay is 119 pages long. Fine. Then I'll move it over to a PDF and I'm told the length is now 134 pages. In Word, the screenplay is something like 130 pages.
So, the question is, which is right and which is wrong? Which number best reflects the length of my screenplay?
For the record, it's in Courier New and font size 12. That doesn't change from format to format. Do I just go with the page count in Rough Draft?
I'm a little confused.
