I'm using Adobe Pro CC 2018 and not sure what I've done wrong for the subtitle not to show? See screenshot. It doesn't appear at all. Appreciate the help!

Your captions need to be the same resolution as your sequence.

Also It shows 608 but guessing you need 708.

Depends what you mean by subtitle. You can use legacy titler, new titler (T tool), and (‘new captions..’) closed captions (608/708/Teletext/Open Subtitle/Australian - most with different tracks (CC1-4, Levels, Services) and Open Captions.

 

The last is the best bet (open captions), although it’s not perfect. Also, if you render to certain codecs (AVCI 100) the captions don’t show.

 

If you are using closed captions then you have to enable display of captions using wrench 🔧 in program monitor - selecting correct type (608/708 etc) and level (CC1 etc) in the settings menu just below the enable.

You have to activate it in Proyect panel from that little wrench with the parameters that you set when you creates the Captions
