I've used that (I assume you mean High Logic's FCP). I seem to recall it had _some_ help files, though not much. Took a lot of experimenting. I suspect the easiest thing to do (if you have a scanner) is scan in a graphic of your script, then you can move each individual character into FCP and modify/straighten/make it consistent fairly straightforwardly. I'm sure I didn't do everything right, but ended up with a workable script. Did you buy it (I think help is available in that case) or just get the 30 day trial? It definitely will not work after 30 days, as I've discovered to my chagrin. (This was over a year ago, so I may not remember everything, but I could try to answer any questions)
