How to Export a Document

You can export a document either from the project overview or directly within the editor.

  1. Open the context menu.
  2. Select the “Export document…” option.
  3. Optional: Adjust the Timecode Offset if needed.
  4. Optional: Modify the Frame Rate (e.g., round to 24fps instead of 25fps).
  5. Choose a Document Type.
  6. Optional (when exporting as .docx): Adjust the Timecode Format.
  7. Click Download.

Your browser will now download the document in your chosen format.

Available Formats

Frazier supports the following text formats and document types for export:

SubRip (.srt)
A widely used subtitle format that includes the text along with start and end timecodes.
WebVTT (.vtt)
Similar to SubRip but primarily used for internet videos to transfer subtitles and display them in video players.
CSV (.csv)
Exports all information in a tabular format. Perfect for further processing in spreadsheet applications such as Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers, or LibreOffice Calc. Note that this format does not support text formatting.
Excel (.xlsx)
All information in an Excel spreadsheet.
XML (.xml, .ttml, .exb)
Various XML-based formats are available for exporting. These are often used for exchanging data with other programs. While they are less common, they may be requested by clients for specific workflows.
Open Office XML / Word (.docx)
Exports your manuscript, including timecodes, dialogue/instructions, and descriptions, in a “classic” manuscript format. This is ideal for use in recording studios or for voice recording sessions. Compatible with Microsoft Word, Apple Pages, LibreOffice Write, and similar programs. *
Backup (.adc)
Frazier’s proprietary document format (.adc). Use this format to create a full backup of your work. This is the only format that retains all additional information, such as voices, comments, tags, and other metadata.

Export a Word File

You can choose between two templates:

  1. Default - Rich Text (.docx)
  2. Default - Table (.docx)

After selecting a document type, you can choose the timecode format:

  • 00:00:00.00 (HH:MM:SS.FF)
  • 00:00:00:00 (HH:MM:SS:FF)
  • 00:00:00 (HH:MM:SS)
  • 00:00 (MM:SS)

Optionally, if you select a format without frames, you can round the frames up or down.

  • 00:00:00 (HH:MM:SS) = 00:00:01.13 -> 00:00:02
  • 00:00 (MM:SS) = 00:00:01.13 -> 00:02

*Tip: You can create custom Word templates to tailor the appearance and content of exported manuscripts. For more details, refer to the chapter on DOCX Templates.

Optional: Burn Manuscript into Video

Optionally, you can burn your descriptions into the video as “subtitles”. You can start the process from both the project overview and directly from the editor.

  1. Open the context menu.
  2. Select the option “Burn in Subtitles…”.
  3. Select a video.
  4. Select the resolution.
    1. Original
    2. 480p
    3. 720p
    4. 1080p
  5. Choose whether timecodes should be burned in.
  6. Click “Start”.
