Shadow (not stroke) is best used for video.
Product limitations:
Stroke is never antialiased and CAN be used for DVD authoring. Stroke provides a 1 pixel non-antialiased outline around text.
Transparency is currently only support for gif . Gif images, however, do not include alpha channels and not suited for use in video or DVD.
TitleFactory provides the ability to create a massive amount of images based on scripts or other text files. It is not an image manipulation program like Adobe Photoshop nor is it a general title editing program like TitleDeko Pro. The ability to view and manipulate images within the product is not currently supported although the ability to view test images is being considered for a future version of the product. In the meantime, however, images created with TitleFactory can be viewed and edited by other image editing products.
Suggestions for product enhancements are always welcome. Please use the contact page to submit suggestions.
