Trina, that is a good looking template for scripts. I setup a similar document in Word when I first started developing CBT. However, I found that publishing my story files in word for my narration scripts are much quicker. Here is what I do:
1. I type in the narration script for each page in the notes section of each page. Sometimes, it is a mater of copying the screen text.
2. Then I publish the story file in WORD format. This produces a copy of each screen with a unique identification number (screen number from the story file).
3. Then I do a "search and Replace" to replace NOTES with NARRATION.
4. Finally, I add a page break for each screen to make a separate page for each script. This can be done automatically in word.
The result is a separate page for each script with a small image of the graphic on each screen. This allows the narrator to see what they are speaking about and helps in their understanding of the script.
