How this pair works
Your Plain text file is parsed into a canonical screenplay model (by verified content, not just the file extension), then rendered as Adobe Story (ASTX). Adobe Story (ASTX) background: Adobe Story (2010–2019) was Adobe’s cloud screenwriting suite. Adobe announced its exit from scriptwriting in January 2018 and deleted all user data when the service closed on 22 January 2019 — the canonical cautionary tale for keeping scripts in open formats.
