Yes I can see the issues in real-time (or near-time) collaboration as that is not something Scrivener really deals with elegantly. I was talking about it more from an individual writers perspective which is how I use it.
I export sections/chapters to PDF, ePub, etc. to send to my editors and technical reviewers.
Actually you got me thinking about how I would need to approach this should a collaborative project come my way. I need to investigate this further as that is now an itch that needs to be scratched :)
- ghaff 8y agoFor work stuff, I use Google Docs as a matter of course and that works well. It's not perfect insofar as the "it's over to you now and I won't touch it any more" handoff isn't baked into the workflow but once people learn to have discipline around that, it works well. I do like Sccrivener. I just don't really do the working on screenplay/novel/etc. over the course of months to years that is really it's sweet spot. The one time I used it which was really useful was assembling a book partly out of a series of previously written pieces. It was very good for moving parts around although I suppose outline mode on a standard word processor could have substituted.
