Your first crew-ready stage plot.

1. Install the Mac app

Open the downloaded DMG, move Stage Plot Forge to Applications, and launch it. The app is signed and notarized for Apple silicon Macs running macOS 14 or later.

2. Explore a completed project

Choose Explore Example in the Welcome window. The example is an unsaved working copy, so you can move symbols, change production data, run preflight, and try every export without affecting a source file.

• Inspect the instruments, microphones, amplifiers, wedges, and power positions.
• Compare the plot labels with the input and monitor lists.
• Open Preflight and review the checks before export.
• Export a stage-plot-only PDF or the full production pack.

3. Create your own stage plot

Return to the Welcome window and choose New Stage Plot. Set the stage dimensions and audience edge, place the largest equipment first, then add performers, inputs, monitors, and requirements.

4. Run preflight and export

Resolve missing labels, duplicate channels, and incomplete show details. Export a vector PDF for the venue, an image for quick sharing, or CSV production lists when the receiving crew needs spreadsheet data.
