Import and Export

Bring your manuscript in. Export when you are ready.

Novilot is built for finished and in-progress drafts you already have. Import your manuscript, work in one writing surface with continuity and analysis tools, then export publish-ready files when you want to share, submit, or publish.

How import works

Paste your full manuscript into Novilot, or upload a .txt or .md file. Chapters are detected from common heading patterns such as “Chapter N,” so a long draft becomes a project you can navigate. After import you can run Continuity Guardian and build a story bible from what is on the page.

Publish-ready export

When you are ready to leave the editor, export DOCX, EPUB, or PDF with clean formatting suited to agent submissions and KDP. Your work stays yours: export whenever you need a copy outside the app.

Built for indie authors and long projects

Import and export matter most when the manuscript is already long. Bring the draft in, keep continuity as you revise, then ship a file that is ready to share. See also Novilot for indie authors.
