How to Export Cues in a Script

Exporting Cues as Images, PDFs, or Text

MediaShout 7 lets you export cues from your script as images (.jpg or .png), PDFs, or text files (.txt). Perfect for printing scripts for your media team, archiving cue designs, or sharing layouts with volunteers.


Export a Single Cue


Step 1: Select Your Cue

Open your script in MediaShout 7 and click the cue you want to export.


Step 2: Open Export Options

Go to File > Export.


Step 3: Choose Your Format

Select one of these export options:

  • Export as Images (.jpg or .png) — saves as individual image files
  • Export as PDF — saves as a single PDF document
  • Export as TXT — saves text content only

Step 4: Choose Destination

Click the folder icon next to the Destination field and select where you want the file saved on your computer.


Step 5: Adjust Settings (Optional)

The Export window offers additional options for resolution, page size, and other settings. Adjust as needed for your use case, then click Export.


Export Multiple Cues or Your Entire Script


Step 1: Open Your Script

Open your script in MediaShout 7. No need to select individual cues—the export will include all of them.


Step 2: Open Export Options

Go to File > Export.


Step 3: Choose Your Format

Select one of these export options:

  • Export as Images (.jpg or .png) — saves each cue as a separate image file
  • Export as PDF — saves all cues as pages in a single PDF (recommended for multiple cues)
  • Export as TXT — saves text content from all cues

Pro tip: Use PDF for exporting multiple cues—it keeps everything in one document instead of separate files, making it easier to print and share with your team.


Step 4: Choose Destination

Click the folder icon next to the Destination field and select where you want the file saved.


Step 5: Adjust Settings (Optional)

Customize resolution, page size, or other options as needed, then click Export.

  • Images: Individual visual references or archiving cue designs
  • PDF: Printing scripts for your team or sharing layouts with volunteers
  • TXT: Quick text-only reference or importing into other documents
