Subtitles allow you to catch every bit of the witty dialogue in your favorite videos, especially if you are hard of hearing or if you are trying to watch a video on your iPad in a noisy place. Each app you use to watch videos on your iPad will have its own subtitle settings, but you can get a consistent style for your iPad subtitles across your apps by changing your preferences. This can make watching shows on your iPad much more enjoyable if you always prefer to have captions turned on.

If you have already set up a caption style but it is being overridden by certain apps or videos, jump down to Step 5 to turn off the override.

Check out the Tech-Recipes article here to see a tutorial on how to accomplish the same thing on your iPhone.

How to Print to PDF in Windows 10

How to Print to PDF in Windows 10

We have always had workarounds to convert documents and web pages to PDFs, but Windows 10 has simplified the process and eliminated the need for third-party applications by building in Microsoft Print to PDF.
