Time for action - finding the download choices

Here's what we will be doing. After connecting to the Internet, we perform the following steps:

  1. Open our browser and go to http://celtx.com. (The webmasters at Celtx have set it up, so that you can use "www" if you want, but it's not needed.) The following screenshot shows the Celtx home page at the time of this writing:
    Time for action - finding the download choices
  2. Below the big green banner (refer to the preceding screenshot) reading #1 choice for media pre-production, there is a row of four smaller banners. Click on the second from the left, the orange one marked Download. We now have the download matrix similar to the one shown in the following screenshot:
    Time for action - finding the download choices
  3. Now we have a couple of choices to make with reference to language and computer version and for our machine. By the way, in the preceding screenshot, please note that both Celtx and Celtx Studios are shown. Celtx, the program, is the free part. Celtx Studios is the commercial collaboration system that Celtx can use to store files on a safe server on the Internet. It is entirely optional, as are some of the "for pay" add-ons, which we'll discuss later.

Celtx speaks your language

Using software is much more pleasant if the instructions on the screen and the menu choices make sense. Celtx currently offers 33 choices of language (see the first column on the Download page) in every operating system version except for eeePC (which is only available in English).

These language selections, of course, only affect the on-screen instructions and menu selections, not whatever language you write. For example, let's say you are Dutch (I am always awed by how well so many Dutch folk speak English) and you write scripts for Hollywood in English but prefer to have Celtx's choices in your native language just to speed things up. No problem; choose Nederlands off the download matrix and Downloaden in the right operating system column for your computer.

Write in Hindi for Bollywood? Well, you still can, but there is no Hindi version yet, so, for now, the instructions will be in English or whatever other available language you might be more comfortable in. One caveat to this—the software may have been translated into these languages, but not all of them are supported by Celtx's online PDF generation. (Typeset does not support non-Latin characters at the moment. So, although the program may be in Hindi, it isn't possible to use the Typeset feature as of yet. Cyrillic and Phonym languages such as Russian, Chinese, and Japanese are also affected.)

Note

Want a version of Celtx in Hindi or some other language not yet available? Well, the Celtx people seek volunteers to help out with translations. Hindi is a work in progress as are a number of other languages. Visit the following URL for more information:

The right operating system

In the first column of the Download page, again, is our choice of language. The remaining four columns—Windows, OS X (for Mac), Linux (see the little Linux mascot penguin?), and eeePC—are where you choose the right version for your computer.
