Exporting
Four ways to get a finished book out of Castwright: a single chaptered M4B, a zip of per-chapter MP3s, a shareable streaming link, or a full portable backup (state + manuscript + audio + cover) for moving the whole project to another machine.
Every export you start is tracked here — queued, running, done, or failed — with retry and copy-link actions per row.
The demo book still has one chapter queued (Chapter 4 hasn't rendered yet), so a whole-book export currently refuses with "some chapters still need audio" instead of producing a running job. This shows the queue's empty state; capturing an in-progress/done row is tracked as a follow-up, once the whole book has rendered.
Open the export picker and switch to "Download to phone" for a LAN URL plus a QR code — scan it with your phone's camera, no separate app or cable needed, and the file lands straight in its Downloads folder. The same picker also lets you switch between M4B, MP3.ZIP, AAC (M4A), and Opus (Ogg).
