Writing Tools

Search across your projects, export in multiple formats, and use keyboard shortcuts to speed up your workflow.

Press Cmd+F (or Ctrl+F on Windows) to open the search dialog. Search across all your accessible projects and documents — results show matching documents with timestamps so you can quickly jump to what you need.

Search is scoped to your account, so you only see results from projects you have access to.

Export

Export your work in five formats:

  • Markdown (.md)
  • Plain text (.txt)
  • Word document (.docx)
  • PDF (.pdf)
  • HTML (.html)

You can export a single document or all documents in a project at once. Files are saved to a folder you choose on your machine — nothing is uploaded anywhere.

When exporting multiple documents, a progress indicator shows which document is being exported.

Keyboard Shortcuts

Fable has keyboard shortcuts for common actions. You can also view these anytime in Settings > Hotkeys.
