DubScript

Written by a screenwriter, DubScript is a screenplay reader app, which, on a good day, should allow you to view many FDX (Final Draft 8) movie screenplay-formatted scripts as well as screenplay files from either the Trelby or CeltX screenplay programs. (CeltX users must first export the script to .html format.)

Others may charge as high as mid-range single digits for a finely-crafted script-reading product, but since this isn’t one, DubScript is offered to you for a limited time at three (3) easy installments of ONLY $0.00 on the Android Market!

What a deal!

DubScript is currently “beta” quality. Meaning everything may not work 100%. THIS BETA VERSION IS SET TO EXPIRE AT THE END OF MARCH, 2012.
