摘要

In the data structure for managing font information for text subtitles, a clip information file for a text subtitle stream is provided. The clip information file includes a font file name field for each font file associated with the text subtitle stream. The font file name fields are indexed by a font identifier for each font file associated with the text subtitle stream, and each font file name field provides the font file name of the font file identified by the font identifier. In one embodiment, at least one of the font identifiers identifies a font file referenced as style information in the text subtitle stream.
