Exporting Closed Caption data
Closed captions are typically used to display the audio portion of a video as text on televisions and other devices that support the display of closed
captions.
Adobe Media Encoder can export closed caption tracks from Premiere Pro sequences as a separate "sidecar" file that contains the caption data.
For QuickTime exports, you can choose to export the data either as a separate sidecar file, or embed the data within the output file.
For more information on exporting closed caption data from Adobe Premiere Pro through Adobe Media Encoder, see Closed Captioning, and

Export Closed Caption data using the Export Settings dialog box
