If I understand you correctly, you are importing from a txt file?

This should contain, in the header something like:
#Subtitle text attribute begin
#/R:1,1 /FN:Arial /CS:0 /FS:40 /AL:l /FP:8 /FC:1,1 /OC:3,1 /BC:2,16
#Subtitle text attribute end

The bit in red is the font size attribute.

Yes i'm importing the subtittle from a txt file.
But the problem that i can't changing the size on the txt, it's very small.
I converted the sub file with Subtitle Workshop.. is it ok?
And if it's not ok, what is the right way to convert the normal subtittles files to a txt file?

Thanx for u help

I had this effect also once. Unfortunatly I cant remember what I did to get rid of it, but I think it was the following:
Export the subtitle to a file (with format info), edit the file with a text editor, fix the size (this is also the easiest way to set sizes, color, bold and so on for all subtiltes the same by simply changing the range of the items and deleting no longer used ranges). These settings are at the end of the file. Then reimport the file.

I think the easiest way would be to generate a dummy s-t file in WS2 with just two s-ts but with the attributes as you want them. Then import the real txt s-t file, replacing the two dummy s-ts but conserving the header and footer as is. Assuming the time format and the text format are the same as the dummy ones, it should then import perfectly.

Did you install DMF5 on your computer?

If not, you can simply install the 2.232 patch in your computer. This should fix the subtitle problem.

Thank you

Just to add.. I had to re-apply this patch after playing with some trial software from ULead.. I know for a fact this was working before, because I have some DVD's to prove that.. but.. it stopped working, and reapplying that patch solved this subtitles issue.
