How do I import an existing project into Novlr?

Whether you want to import an existing project to keep writing in Novlr, or want to upload a template to help you build out your characters, world, or plot, you can do so in Novlr.

To import a project, navigate to the Writing Studio from the Dashboard and click on the import button at the bottom of the project table. Once clicked, you will see a pop-up where you can import from your device, or drag a file to, and then select Import.

If you have heading hierarchy set in the document you are importing, you will be given the option to import your document as a single section or chapter, or choose to have Novlr auto-split your document into separate sections for you.

If you don't have heading hierarchy set, you can use Novlr’s split function to split a large doc into smaller docs

You can also import individual sections. Read more here.

We currently only support import for .docx formats, but more will be coming very soon.
