What is the turnaround time for the script formatting service?

Approximately 5 business days. If you also would like to include our script coverage service, please add another 3 business days or so.

What is your rate for script formatting?

$350 is our base rate, and 99% of scripts we format are charged that base rate. But if your script requires way more work, or is over 120 pages (we count every 200 words as a screenplay page no matter what your script looks like), we may need to charge more. If that's the case, don't worry: we'll contact you with a new quote before any work begins and you can either move forward or we can refund your entire order.
