Will new revision pages automatically be reflected in page color?

Yes. Turn on Scriptation's Revision Colors info layer and Scriptation will automatically color your revised pages using the WGA's revision color wheel — blue, pink, yellow, green, and beyond.


If you're used to piles of colored revision pages, your digital script can look the same way.


For the Revision Colors info layer to detect the color of each page, the color name must be in the center header of the page and must match one of the colors on the WGA's revision color wheel:


  1. White — unrevised; also known as the "Production Draft"
  2. Blue
  3. Pink
  4. Yellow
  5. Green
  6. Goldenrod
  7. Buff
  8. Salmon
  9. Cherry
  10. Tan
  11. Second Blue revision
  12. Second Pink revision, and so on…



🤓 TIP: To turn on Revision Colors, see What are Info Layers, and how do I use them? → How to Turn on Info Layers.


Embedding Revision Colors without Info Layers


You can also embed the revision color directly into the PDF from your screenwriting software.


In Final Draft (or your screenwriting program of choice), there should be an option to output the PDF or print job with Page Colors. When that's turned on, the pages are colored in Scriptation the same way they're colored in the original script.


In Final Draft's Print window, check the box for Page Color:



If you're using a different screenwriting program, check its documentation for the same option.
