  Graphic file in Titler – Odd behavior

  Posted by Mark Whitney on June 8, 2012 at 9:24 pm

  I’ve come across some odd behavior when using certain graphic files in Premiere Pro CS5.5’s Titler, and haven’t found much help in the the on-line Help nor searching the forums.

  In Illustrator CS5.5, I’ve created a file that matches the Premier project dimensions. From past experience working with AI files, I know to create a rectangle that matches the dims as well, and set it to have no stroke or fill. As a test, I then created a simple rounded rectangle then put some text above that, saved as a CS5 flavor of .ai, then closed.

  In Ppro, I create a new title, then right click on the Titler Window to select Logo, Insert Logo and then the AI file I just created. So far, so good other than having to do some minor centering, it’s working as expected. From what I’ve read, Premiere rasterizes the vector file upon import. Wish it didn’t, but so it goes.

  No though, If I then go back to Illustrator and add an element that uses something like a graphical brush stroke, (in my case a filmstrip brush), save and go back to the Titler in PremPro, the new element isn’t there.

  Even if I create a new title and importing that same graphic, the icon on the tool panel shows the updated image, but the main window doesn’t, nor does the main timeline.

  If I import that same file into Premiere and drag to the timeline, it displays correctly. Same file imported into After Effects CS5.5 as a composition works correctly too.

  So, this just an issue with PremPro CS5.5’s Titler or is CS6 doing this too?

  Thanks
