Impossible to change the font in captions - Premiere Pro (Premiere Pro 14.9 and earlier)

Hello everyone,

 

I downloaded the last version of premiere pro, the 2018 one, and as I want to add captions to my video it is impossible to change the font.

 

So I went back to the 2017 version and yesterday it worked.

 

But today, the option is not available anymore. I have the same problem in the 2 versions.

I just can't choose the aesthetic of the captions. I can only change the text and position.

 

Has anyone had the same problem ? Is there some setting I need to change ?

 

Thank you for your help, it is kind of urgent as I need to handle some work soon.

REASON FOUND:

"Font Family: selects one of the font families available on your system (Note: not every font is supported; if it’s unsupported, Premiere will use a default font)"

Where are the supported fonts?

 

There is no list of which fonts are supported/unsupported. Most are.

I am having the same problem. I am no longer able to change the size of the font the opacity of the background of the font or the font itself in open or any kind of captions. I really need to be able to adjust this on my screen. The only controls that I have is the color limited to 5 colors and background color and I can choose something about opacity but it doesn't do crap! I don't want background of captions to be opaque and I want control over what my captions look like and what size they are and the font. The controls are gone from the last time I used it? They were there, but they are no longer there now?

P.S. I have googled and searched for a work around but doesn't seem to be one. This is not a good change to the program!

Same problem right now in AP2020, why is it still like that? How can i change the font and its size in subtitles?

I always thought only Open Captions you are able to change font etc.

It is not working in open captions either. You could just a short time ago though?

I'll try to look at 2017 later. Closed captions are often set by the end app. What kind of closed are you using? 608, 708.

Open captions in 2018 allow me to edit size and color. Closed have the limits you describe. Also, I don't think transparency is working as expected.
