Interested in sharing your subtitles with others? Consider uploading to<\/span> Vimeo<\/a>.

Prepare Your InqScribe Transcript<\/h3>\n

First, open up your InqScribe document and make sure your transcript and timecodes are in order. Once everything looks good, we’re going to export as a <\/span>WebVTT <\/a>file. This will require InqScribe version 2.2.3 or newer. Vimeo also supports the SRT and SCC format, but <\/span>they recommend<\/a>\u00a0using WebVTT when possible<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Select “File > Export > WebVTT…”, name your file and choose a save location. Make a note of this location because we’ll need to access it again in a moment.<\/span><\/p>\n
