Scrivener for Mac is a professional content-generation tool for writers that automates and simplifies the process of composing and structuring of long and difficult documents. Powerful features of Scrivener give you the complete control over formatting of such documents, leaving the writer with much easier time of creating ever-important first draft version of document.

If you are tasked to write a document that requires lot of referencing, tracking of notes, concepts and research documents that may or may not include audio and video files, then the app will without a doubt increase your productivity and enable you to create better end product.

Features and Highlights

For writing. And writing. And writing.
The app is the go-to app for writers of all kinds, used every day by best-selling novelists, screenwriters, non-fiction writers, students, academics, lawyers, journalists, translators and more. Scrivener for macOS won't tell you how to write—it simply provides everything you need to start writing and keep writing.

Grow your manuscript your way
Tailor-made for long writing projects, the app banishes page fright by allowing you to compose your text in any order, in sections as large or small as you like. Got a great idea but don't know where it fits? Write when inspiration strikes and find its place later. Grow your manuscript organically, idea by idea.

See the forest or the trees
Whether you plan or plunge, the tool works your way: hammer out every last detail before typing a word, or carve out a draft and restructure later. Or mix your methods and do a bit of both. In the tool, everything you write is integrated into an easy-to-use project outline. So working with an overview of your manuscript is only ever a click away, and turning Chapter Four into Chapter One is as simple as drag and drop.

Research within reach
Need to refer to research? In the app, your background material is always at hand, and you can open it right next to your work. Write a description based on a photograph. Transcribe an interview. Take notes about a PDF file or web page. Or check for consistency by referencing an earlier chapter alongside the one in progress.

Getting it out there
Once you're ready to share your work with the world, compile everything into a single document for printing, self-publishing, or exporting to popular formats such as Word, PDF, Final Draft or plain text. You can even share using different formatting, so that you can write in your favorite font and still satisfy those submission guidelines.

Note: 30 days trial version.

What's new in this version:

Restored Features:
- Restored the PDF/X-1a option for PDF export. This had been temporarily removed because of a bug in the development tools that resulted in a crash on Intel machines running Big Sur.
- Reinstated the Auto-Completion settings from 3.3.3 and earlier. These had been temporarily removed to work around a crasher on Sonoma.

Fixed:
- Fixed a bug in 3.3.5 whereby only the first footnote on each page was included when printing or exporting to PDF, which was a side effect of some of the page view fixes for Sonoma.
- Fixed a bug whereby “Style to” in the script settings may not work correctly when tabbing after typing was set to insert only a tab.
- Removed the “Reduce file size” options for PDF files from Compile. These options rely on Quartz filters, which no longer seem to work in recent versions of macOS.
