Export Transcript as Word file WITHOUT speakers and timecode

I need to export a transcript to a Word file without the speakers and timecode. I just need al transcript as a text.

The export settings from the Transcript panel are almost the same as the export settings for the Captions panel.

It would be more usefull that the Transcript panel handles just text (not speakers or timecode), and let te Captions panel handle exporting speakers and timecode.

It seems as is Adobe is going back and forth changing their mind about every feature. It's so annoying. You really can't rely on the new features as they always seems to be in "beta".

I hear you. There were many variations on this theme, and users that definitely wanted speakers and/or timecode in transcripts and/or captions. But any of these options compete for programming time.

There were many requests for speakers and timecode for both captions and transcript. The flexible option is actually the .csv export. Export as csv, copy the text column, paste into Word.

That's the workflow I'm currently using. But, I feel like Transcript and Captions mix their purpouses.

I see many users requested that change, but it killed the chance to have a straight forward way to export just the text. I'd love to see a .doc or .txt export without speaker and timecode, as a sigle click export or maybe as an option in the current export settings to choose wheather you want to include time and speaker.
