About styles
Once you’ve applied a combination of color properties and font characteristics to a text or shape element in your title,
you can save this combination, or style,forlateruse.Youcansaveanynumberofstyles.Thumbnailsofallsavedstyles
appear in the Titler Styles panel, so you can quickly apply your custom styles across projects. Adobe Premiere Pro
also includes a set of default styles.
By default, Adobe Premiere Pro stores all saved styles as style library files that use the .prsl file extension. When you
save a style library, you are saving the entire set of styles that are displayed in the current Adobe Title Designer
window. The preset style library is stored in Program Files/Adobe/Premiere Pro 2.0/Presets/Styles; custom styles are
stored in My Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/2.0/Styles.
