track, or you can add them to separate tracks.
Note: If you are adding multiple audio tracks to several timelines, make sure that you put similar audio on the same
track in each timeline. (See “Keeping track of tracks” on page 152.)

About subtitles
You can type subtitles directly into a timeline or import subtitles using scripts. Subtitle scripts can contain text or
reference image files. Keep in mind the following information:
• Each screen of subtitles appears as a separate clip in the timeline, including subtitles you type in the Monitor panel.
• A timeline may include up to 32 subtitle tracks for standard,fullscreenvideoand16subtitletracksforwidescreen
video. However, a DVD player can play only one subtitle track at a time.
• Subtitles are not incorporated into the video stream. Each track becomes a separate overlay, making it possible to
display any one of the subtitle tracks over the same video.
• Like button highlighting, subtitles are subpictures and have the same restrictions.
• Subtitles are limited to three colors, which map to the outline, the fill, and partial anti-aliasing of the characters.
• You define the colors used in subtitles in a timeline color set.
