Using the Adobe Title Designer
Using templates
The Adobe Title Designer includes over 200 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" on page 36.
