Using tabs
Similar to a standard word processor, the Adobe Title Designer uses tabs to assist in text
alignment and justification. When you create credits, especially rolling credits, tabs can
help display the credits in professionally aligned and justified columns. You can set
multiple tabs for any text object in the Adobe Title Designer. When working in a text
box, press the Tab key to move the cursor to the next available tab stop. You can specify
a different justification option at each tab stop.
Note: Tabs work exclusively to align the characters within text objects. To align entire text
or graphic objects, use the Align command. For information on using the Align command,
see “Aligning and distributing objects” on page 205.
The Tab Stops dialog box
To set and adjust a tab stop:
1 Select a text object.
2 Choose Title > Tab Stops.
3 In the Tab Stops dialog box, do one of the following:
• Click the Left Justify tab marker to create a tab stop with left-justified text.
• Click the Center tab marker to create a tab stop with centered text.
• Click the Right Justify tab marker to create a tab stop with right-justified text.
4 Click the tab ruler above the numbers to create a tab. Drag the tab stop to adjust its
position. As you drag, use the vertical guides that appear in the Adobe Title Designer
window to track the position of the stop. The Adobe Title Designer window updates to
show the new position of any text at a tab stop that you adjust.
To view the tab stops without opening the Tab Stop dialog box:
Choose Title > View > Tab Markers. A check mark beside Tab Markers indicates that the
tab
stop viewing lines are on. When they are on, the yellow tab markers display for each text
object you select.
To delete a tab stop:
In the Tab Stops dialog box, drag the tab up, down, or off the tab ruler.

Adding a title to a project
When you’ve completed and saved a title, Adobe Premiere Pro automatically adds it to the
open Project window. The title becomes a clip in the project, using the original title file as
its source.
If you want to superimpose a title over a clip, add the title to the track directly above the
clip. By default, titles have transparent backgrounds so that clips beneath them in the
Timeline window are visible.
To add a title to a project:
1 Save the title. The title appears in the open Project window.
2 Add the title to any track.
To change the duration of a title in the Timeline window:
Do one of the following:
• Drag its In or Out point.
• Select it, choose Clip > Duration, and type a new duration.
To preview a title:
