::::Microsoft Word or LibreOffice should come with a PDFCreator (located under the file drop-down menu) or at least the ability to export the document as PDF.— <span style="font-size:16px; font-family:OrbitronMedium;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  11:46, 18 October 2012 (EDT)
:::::The pdf file idea sounds great, but that would mean editors need to get the original word file if they want to edit one single word. But before anyone makes a pdf file, I would suggest we finish all the transcripts here on this page first, and then those who wants to put the transcripts in a pdf file can have a general template to start with, then they place the file link here.—[[User:Spartan331|<span style="color:silver;">S331</span>]] [[File:Bubbleshieldhud.svg|14px]]<sub>([[User talk:Spartan331|COM]] • [[Special:Contributions/Spartan331|Mission Log]] • [[UserProfile:Spartan331|Profile]])</sub> 12:17, 18 October 2012 (EDT)

(Reset indent) Ok, so how about we do this: We leave the transcipts the way they are now until the full thing comes out, then we implement either the pdf or video suggestion. What does everyone think about this?--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 13:26, 18 October 2012 (EDT)
:Sounds good to me.[[User:Spartansniper450/IRC Quotes|<span style="color:#000000">''Col.''</span>]] [[User:Spartansniper450|<span style="color:#00416A">Snipes</span>]][[User talk:Spartansniper450|<span style="color:gold">4</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Spartansniper450|<span style="color:silver">50</span>]] 13:40, 18 October 2012 (EDT)
:Sounds about right. I'm also somewhat against the PDF idea, because separate files are far more unwieldy than direct editing on the wiki. As for the video option, I think the whole point of a transcript is to provide a reference document for people who might not have access to the videos for whatever reason, or simply need to check out a quote really quick without painstakingly searching for the right time stamp on a video. That, and I don't really see a problem with using the episodic division on the transcript page even after the whole thing is released as one continuous film - the episodic format ''is'' a genuine alternate way of presenting the film, and it provides a convenient and natural way to divide the transcript into serviceable bits and prevents the article from becoming too massive. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 14:18, 18 October 2012 (EDT)
