Working with styles

Work with 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, for later use. You can save any number of styles. Thumbnails of all saved
styles appear in the Title 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/Adobe Premiere Pro CS3/Presets/Styles; custom
styles are stored in My Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/3.0/Styles (Windows), or Documents/Adobe/Premiere
Pro/3.0/Styles (Mac OS).
Because Adobe Premiere Pro stores each style or set of styles as a separate file, you can share styles with other users.
If you share styles, make sure that the fonts, textures, and background files used are available on all systems.
The Current Style thumbnail always shows the properties that you have applied to the currently selected element.
