The page as it prints
The preview is drawn the way Plot prints a title page: the title a third of the way down, the credit and writers beneath it, the draft date and contact at the lower left.

Drawn the way Plot prints a title page. Another screenwriting app may space the lines differently.
Before you send it
Checks
Add the title
A title page needs a title before it can be copied, downloaded or printed.
Name the writer
A full title page usually names the writer or writing team. Leave it blank only on purpose.
Add a way to reach you
A reader who likes the script needs your email or your representative's. Leave it off only for a copy that must not identify you.
Useful output, not a score

Questions writers ask
What goes on a screenplay title page?
The title, centered about a third of the way down; a credit line such as Written by; the writer or writing team; a source line when the script adapts other material; and, at the lower left, a draft date if you use one and your contact details or your representative's.
Should a contest title page be anonymous?
Only when the program says so. Some competitions and fellowships read blind and ask you to remove your name from the title page, or to leave the title page out. Make a title-only copy for those, keep your identified copy for everyone else, and check the program's current rules before you upload.
Can I put the title page on a script I already have?
Yes. The Fountain block ends with the blank line that closes a title page, so you can paste it at the very top of a Fountain script. Plot reads it as the script's title page when you import the file.
Should I put a copyright notice or WGA number on my title page?
Spec title pages usually leave both off, so the builder has no field for them. Registering a script is a separate step with the US Copyright Office or the WGA registry, and it protects the script whether or not the page mentions it.
Does Inkwell store the details I type?
Only when you choose Continue in Plot. The preview, the Fountain block, the download and the print happen in your browser. Continue in Plot sends the title page to Inkwell so it opens as a new screenplay after you sign in, and Inkwell keeps that copy for up to 24 hours.
Defined in the glossary
Title page
The first page of a script submission: title, writer name, and contact — not story. It should look calm and professional, not like a poster.
Spec script
A screenplay written on speculation — no deal yet — meant to sell the story or showcase craft. Specs usually skip production numbering and camera direction.
Fountain
An open, plain-text markup for screenplays. Light conventions — scene headings, character cues, dialogue — keep the file readable in any text editor while still carrying structure. In Plot you write normally; Inkwell understands the structure as you type.
Keep working with the draft
Free screenplay length checker
Check a feature, pilot, or short against page-count practice, official contest windows, and a published feature corpus — then export a memo you can send with the draft.
