Extra Import/Export Formats
:warning: Manuskript relies a lot on pandoc to export projects. Install pandoc for more export document formats such as ePub, OpenDocument (LibreOffice), and DocX (MS Word). See the whole list below.

Highlighters
Highlighting formats only on the surface, it only helps to write, but is not saved in the document. Right now, manuskript supports only markdown highlighter.
| Format | Highlighter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Plain text | :x: | Should it be possible to disable highlighting? |
| Markdown | :white_check_mark: | Default. And not very performant, could be improved. Using noteflow's? |
| Fountain | :x: | Could ~easily be implemented. But how to export? |
