A Python application for Manuskript data export from outsides.

• Creates a document containing the story world descriptions. The heading levels reflect the hierarchy in Manuskript.
• Creates a document containing the character data. The first level headings show the characters' names. The character information is structured on the second level.
• Creates a document containing all chapters and scenes.
• Creates synopses on all levels (up to 6) of the Manuskript Outline:
  • Full chapter summaries in a document per chapter level.
  • Short chapter summaries in a document per chapter level.
  • Full scene summaries.
  • Short scene summaries.
  • Scene titles.
• You can select the output format (md, odt, docx, html).

• A Python installation (version 3.6 or newer).
• mskmd.py in the same directory as manuskript-exporter.pyw.
• A pandoc installation.
• pypandoc installed via PyPi.

Please make sure that your Python3 installation has the tkinter module. On Ubuntu, for example, it is not available out of the box and must be installed via a separate package named python3-tk.

Save the file mskexporter.pyw.

The file mskmd.py must be placed besides manuskript-exporter.pyw.

1. Open your Manuskript project with File > Open or Ctrl-O. Select the .msk file.
2. Select the output document type.
3. Create the documents selecting the type with the Convert menu.
