Using templates


    The Adobe Title Designer includes many templates that provide you with title area configurations to help you build a title. For instance, some templates include art that may be pertinent to your project's subject matter. Other templates have special designs, such as letterboxed or pillarboxed drawing areas. If you change a template, you can save it as a new title file or import it as a template for use in other projects. You can use any saved title as a template.

    Templates are transferable between users and across platforms. If you share templates, make sure that each system includes all the fonts, textures, logos, and images used in the template. For information on textures, see Loading textures.
