Encore changes the display time of all new subtitles. Existing subtitles remain unchanged. Duplicate entire track of subtitles After you create the first set of subtitles for a timeline, you can duplicate the entire track and use it like a template for other languages you need to create. Before you duplicate the track, make sure the subtitles are adjusted properly for each scene. This way, you need to change only the content of each subtitle. All other attributes, such as location in the scene, duration, font, formatting, color and position, will match the original set. 1 Click the track header of the subtitle track to duplicate. 2 Choose Edit > Duplicate. Subtitle scripts About script files You import subtitles using a script file. Encore 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 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.

About script files
You import subtitles using a
script file
. Encore 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 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.
