Export

Right-click any folder in the binder and choose Export… to compile it — and everything nested inside it, in the same top-to-bottom order shown in the binder — into a single DOCX, EPUB, or print-ready PDF file. A nested folder whose role is Trash or Templates is skipped automatically, so deleted or template content never accidentally ends up in a compiled manuscript. If Typewriter Quotes is turned on, the exported file gets curly quotes/em dashes/ellipses too, same as the Preview pane.

File > Export Manuscript… is a shortcut to the same dialog for whichever folder(s) hold the Manuscript role — see there for how it behaves with zero, one, or several such folders.

The export dialog has:

• Title / Subtitle / Author — plain book metadata, remembered for next time (the same fields shown in Project Metadata — editing them in either place keeps both in sync). Subtitle is optional; leave it blank if your book doesn’t have one.
• Style — a dropdown of typesetting styles (see Typesetting Styles). Fonts, page size, running headers, and drop caps all come from whichever style is selected, not from anything typed into this dialog. The same dropdown appears in the Preview tab; switching it in either place updates the other.
• Export as DOCX… / Export as EPUB… / Export as Print PDF… — each opens a native “Save As” dialog (defaulting to a filename built from Title/Subtitle — "Title - Subtitle.docx", falling back to whichever one is set, or manuscript.docx if neither is), then compiles.

Title/Subtitle/Author show up differently per format:

• DOCX/PDF get a centered title page before the manuscript — Title, then Subtitle (if set), then Author.
• EPUB has no title-page concept (it’s reflowable text, not paginated), so Subtitle instead folds into the book’s title metadata as "Title: Subtitle" — that’s what shows up as the book’s title in a reader/library view.
• A custom style’s running header (see Typesetting Styles) can reference {subtitle} alongside {title}/{author}/{chapter}.

All three formats read from the same style, so switching styles changes DOCX, EPUB, and PDF output alike.
