FAQ

A name is wrong in many captions. Is there a find and replace?

No. Cutora has no custom dictionary. Fix each caption by hand, or ask the chat to change the word.

Does the fix reach the caption file too?

Yes. The SRT file in the editor handoff ZIP carries the corrected text.

Can I change the font or colour at the same time?

No. You choose one of three styles, Clean, Bold or Karaoke. The font, size, colour and position are fixed.

Can I undo a caption change?

Yes. Undo and redo have no fixed step limit.
