of path segment ends and corners.
❖ Select a line or an open or closed Bezier shape, and in the Title Properties panel, specify any of the following
options:
Line Width Specifies the path width, in pixels.
Cap Type Specifiesthetypeofcapplacedattheendofthepaths.TheButtoptioncapspathswithsquareends.The

line width beyond the end of the line. This option makes the weight of the line extend equally in all directions around
the line.
Join Type Specifies how the ends of adjoining path segments are joined. The Miter option joins path segments using
pointed corners. The Round option joins path segments using rounded corners. The Bevel option joins path
segments using squared corners.
Miter Limit Specifies the point at which the join type switches from mitered (pointed) to bevel (square). The default
miter limit is 4, which means that the join type switches from miter to bevel when the length of the point is four times
the stroke weight. A miter limit of 1 results in a bevel join.
Note: You can apply the options described above to shapes you create with the Pen tool or Line tool. You can apply an
inner or outer stroke to any text or graphic object.
Adding images
You can use the Titler to place images in a title. This feature is particularly useful for adding a logo graphic to a title
that will serve as a template. You can either add the image as a graphic element or place it in a text box to become
part of the text. The Titler accepts both bitmap images and vector-based artwork (such as art created with Adobe
Illustrator). However, Premiere Pro rasterizes vector-based art, converting it to a bitmap version in the Titler. By
default, an inserted image appears at its original size. After you insert a logo in a title, you can modify the logo’s
properties (such as scale) just as you modify any object’s properties. You can easily restore a logo’s original size and
aspect ratio.

To place a logo in a title
1
Choose Title > Logo > Insert Logo.
2 Drag the logo to where you want it. If necessary, you can adjust the size, opacity, rotation, and scale of the logo.
Note: Insert a logo if you want the image to become part of the title file. If you want to use an image or moving video as
a background only, superimpose the title over a clip of the image or video.
