Please note:
  • "Square pixel" or "pixel ratio" means that the work on the computer is based on square pixels. However the pixel ratio for work carried out on video or film is different. The PAL 4:3 format has pixels that are wider than they are high. This is even more pronounced with 16:9. When doing title work on the computer make sure that the width of your date is either 768 or 1024 pixels.
