Font styles for TTML

This section applies if you are setting up TTML captions from embedded or Teletext source captions. You can optionally specify some of the font style information.

  1. In the output that has the TTML captions, display the section for the captions.

  2. Set Style control to Passthrough or USE_CONFIGURED.

    Note that when USE_CONFIGURED is selected, there are actually no fields that you can configure.

The XML file for the captions will include the following style information:
