In the Template Browser, choose NTSC, PAL, or HD from the Format pop-up menu.

Whenever you open a template, make sure to set your project properties immediately.

” on page 34.

You can save your own projects as templates, so they’re accessible through the
Template Browser.

To save your project as a template:

1

Place the project file (.ipr) in a folder in this location: /Library/Application Support/
LiveType/Templates.

2

Generate a short QuickTime movie of the project (with the same name but an
appropriate movie extension, such as .mov or .mp4).

Once you do this, the template will appear in the preview window of the
Template Browser.
