Learn to work with styles in the Premiere Pro Titler, selecting color properties and font characteristics and saving them as styles to enhance your projects and accelerate your workflow.
You can save a combination of color properties and font characteristics as a 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. Premiere Pro also includes a set of default styles.
By default, Premiere Pro stores all saved styles as style library files that use the .prsl filename extension. When you save a style library, you are saving the entire set of styles that are displayed in the Titler.
The preset style library is stored in the following location:
(Windows) Program Files/Adobe/Premiere Pro [version]/Presets/Styles
(Mac OS) Applications/Premiere Pro [version]/Presets/Styles
Custom styles are stored in the following location:
(Windows) My Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/[version]/Styles
(Mac OS) Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/[version]/styles
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.
