When I try to make a PDF, Wrap gives a warning: no Courier Prime installed

For the best results Wrap uses Courier Prime by Alan Dague-Greene, which you can download for free from the Quote-Unquote Apps's website.

If we don't find said font we fall back on Courier New and finally GNU FreeFont FreeMono, and give a warning about the fonts not being available.

I want to write in a non-Latin language, is this possible with Wrap?

We use Unicode throughout the program so Fountain/Wrap files with non ASCII characters will be processed fine, however when exporting to PDF, Wrap uses Courier Prime by default which does not support non-Latin alphabets. Luckily there are solutions for most left to right languages:

If you use the Cyrillic alphabet you can use the adapted Courier Prime by Dmitry Novikov http://dimkanovikov.pro/courierprime/.

When the language you speak uses the Greek alphabet you can use the flags --use-courier-new or --use-freemono to use one of those typefaces.

If you speak a RTL language Wrap is not recommended as it will always set text LTR.
