Adobe Encore and Subtitles
Subtitles are a big part of the DVD world. You can simply import subtitles. You import subtitles using a script file. Adobe Encore DVD accepts three different types of script files: Text Scripts, Image Scripts, and FAB Image Scripts. Scripts specify the start and end timecode of the subtitles. The big difference between them is that text scripts contain the subtitle text, whereas the two types of image scripts instead reference predesigned and formatted image files.
Unlike image-based subtitles, text script files include the subtitle text along with the timecode for the start and end point for each subtitle. Text scripts contain no screen position or formatting information. You format and position the subtitles as a group when you import them. The Import Subtitles (Text Script) dialog box also lets you designate the track on which they will be placed (or creates a new track), the language (if any), and the color set and group that will be used when displaying them.
