Questions from Kannada writers

Do I need a Kannada keyboard?

No. Type Kannada words the way they sound, in English letters, and press Space. Screenmaster turns them into ಕನ್ನಡ as you write. Suggestions help with spellings that can be typed more than one way.

Can I mix Kannada and English in one screenplay?

Yes. Scene headings and character names often stay in English while dialogue is in Kannada. Switch the typing language at any time, even in the middle of a scene.

Will the PDF print Kannada correctly?

Yes. Screenmaster uses proper Kannada fonts, so the exported PDF prints ಕನ್ನಡ correctly, with screenplay formatting, scene numbers and a title page.

Is it free for Kannada writers?

Yes. Writing, saving to the cloud, index cards, shot division and PDF export are free. No credit card needed.
