Cleaning up a script in Final Draft

[Jim Brennan]

I am trying to import a script from FD into Gorilla. But the sreenwriter made a bunch of errors in the draft. For example he misspelled some character names (thus eliminating an extra unnecessary character). But when he fixed them, they still show up in the cast report. Hence they show up in the Gorilla breakdowns. Is there any way to clean that up in FD?

No, it's a timeless complaint about FD that I've heard (and experienced) several times. Once a character is entered it's impossible (that I know of) to erase it from the character reports.

Crap.

Oh well.....
