22 Importing Files

Before you import a ﬁle, you must open the theme where you want it to be listed.

(And for images, you must also decide whether to put the image in the

Backgrounds, Buttons, or Media list — video and audio ﬁles always go into the

Media list.) DVDit! always imports ﬁles into the theme that is currently open.

The Palette window also has a

Text button. When you click this button, the

window lists all the fonts installed on your PC.

These fonts are available in every theme. To add or remove fonts, exit DVDit! and

install or remove the fonts (see Windows’ Help for details).

Use themes to organize your materials to suit the way you work. For example, you

could create a theme called “Sunsets” and keep only sunset-related material in it;

or you could have a theme called “XYZ Training Video” containing the materials

for a single project. (A project can use items from multiple themes, and a theme

can be reused in multiple projects.) When you need a particular item, just open the

appropriate theme and drag the relevant thumbnail into the project.
