Standard colors for subtitles?
https://www.proz.com/forum/subtitling/225587-standard_colors_for_subtitles.html

Quote:
In Brazil, the standard color for video subtitles is pure yellow, with a black outline on the letters. This pervades all TV channels, commercial video, etc., though now and then I see white subtitles, with or without the black outline.

Most subtitles I see from the USA are white instead. The black outline is not as frequent as in Brazil. So whenever I translate and subtitle into English, I use white letters instead, .
