One of the fonts may be damaged. Try reinstalling Office.
Also, sometimes simply taking fonts out, restarting the computer, then putting them back in can fix problems. It forces Windows to rebuild some font cache data, and that may be where the problem is.
Also, Premiere may not be compatible with all double-byte fonts. Since Adobe doesn’t produce a Chinese version of the application, I doubt they’ve tested it with all the Chinese fonts out there.

That’s normal behavior. When you link to a menu, you link to the entry point of the menu. You can’t link directly to a loop point, the loop point only does anything once the menu has started playing.
For what you want to do, use two menus, or a timeline (for the intro) and a menu.

This strikes me as a font problem. Try unloading extra fonts from your system fonts folder and see if that helps.

February 3, 2006 at 5:50 pm in reply to: Using Encore to create a DVD from an Avid SequenceEncore 1.x doesn’t work especially well with QuickTime files. (2.0 is better with them.) If you can export an MPEG-2 file from Avid, that would be best. Otherwise, try using an AVI file.

Turn of virus scanners, firewall apps, anything else that’s running in the background and try again. Do you know about msconfig? (Start > Run > type ‘msconfig’, click OK)

What Aanarav is saying is that a PC has to have an application installed that can play DVD video discs. Most computers these days come bundled with one, but that doesn’t mean it’s been installed.
Install a DVD player application on the computers you’re having problems with and then see if it works.

Yes. It’s meant to be used with Reader so that your clients don’t have to pay for an app to review your clip. You do need to make sure they upgrade to Reader 7.0.5. I think Reader will prompt them to upgrade automatically.

Double-click on the clip in the Project window.
Set the in and out points (the squiggly brackets) to where you want the start and end of the first section to be. Then press the Overlay Edit button to add it to your comp.
Change the in and out points to the next section you want to use. Repeat as above until all the sections you want are in the comp.
There’s another way to do this. Simpler, but sometimes a little more fussy to get it right. Drag your footage into the comp as many times as you need it. Then for each instance, simply drag the in and out handles for the layer’s time bar to where you want that section to be.

February 2, 2006 at 12:02 am in reply to: Adding effects (ie: Shatter) to the midpoint of a short video clipYes, the Shatter effect is designed this way.
There are two solutions:
Easy: Split the clip (Edit > Split Layer) at the point where you want the shatter to begin, and apply Shatter only to the second instance. Downsides: if you’re using other effects or transformations you’ll have to coordinate between the two instances or tie them together with an expression.
Harder: Set a Hold keyframe of value 0 for the Radius property in the Force 1 section of the shatter effect at the beginning of the layer. Then set a regular keyframe with the desired value at the point where you want it to start shattering. Downsides: None, really. It’s just more of a pain to set up.
