Also, change the size of the font and make it 125 or larger. Just make sure that it fits on the screen well. Once you are done with all settings, click on the "OK" button to apply them.

Step 8: Now, Adjust the text to make sure it is in the center and take a snapshot of the text by clicking on the snapshot icon present at the bottom of the preview window.

Step 9. Once you have taken the snapshot, delete both the sample color and the title layers present in the timeline and drag and drop the snapshot in track 2.

Step 10:  Now right-click on the snapshot track, click on the duration, and set the duration according to the video that you want to use for creating zoom through text effect.

Step 13:  Now play the track and go to the very end where it stops. Again take a snapshot where the track ends and place the snapshot in track two following the first snapshot on which we already applied the Pan and zoom effect.
