Changing Subtitles font for a Composition

Whatever the Default fonts assigned, it is always possible to change the fonts for a Composition. 

Notes
Because MIST manages the fonts independently per clip, in case there is multiple clips on the same track, the operation must be done for all of them.

  1. To modify the fonts, in the CONTROL PANEL > TOOLS > SUBTITLES select FONTS:




  1. Double click on one of the family fonts or custom fonts and select the new font from the Font Library. Validate with OK.





Info
The  fonts displayed in the Fonts Library are the one installed on Windows.

Info
Fonts displayed in yellow are TrueType fonts (.ttf) larger than 640 KB and therefore not respecting the DLP Cinema subtitles specifications (CineCanvas) for DCP mastering. There is no limitations for using them outside our DCP workflows.
