  • doc.
  • text.
  • OPML. Exports the selected scope in OPML format. If necessary, the relevant built-in templates and prototypes are added to the document to facilitate the export before it occurs.
  • Scrivener. Exports the selected scope in Scrivener (OPML) format. If necessary, the relevant built-in templates and prototypes are added to the document to facilitate the export before it occurs.

The controls are:

  • list of formats. Choices as above.
  • include titles (RTF, doc and text formats only). This includes the note titles ($DisplayName) as well as their $Text. If this is not ticked, the following title-related controls are hidden:
    • Title Size (RTF and doc formats only). The point size used for titles in the exported text.
    • Subsections Smaller By. Subsection heads to be reduced in size for each level of indenting, providing finer control over export styling.
