On opening a script file you can add presenters by selecting Properties from the file menu. Any presenters created
or settings changed using this method are only available to that specific script file.

By adding Presenters using the Tools >> Options >> File Based Queues method any presenters or settings changed
here will apply to all QMaster files.

Although there are different ways to add presenters to a script the set-up for this is the same.

Presenters

Presenter's settings allow you to customise settings for individual presenters. The font, colour, style and read rate
can be allocated for individual presenters. These settings will be automatically applied to the script when the
presenter is selected.

There is always a DEFAULT presenter in QMaster this is used to set the default script file settings. For detailed
information about presenter profiles, refer to section 7.5.

General tab

If you find that your script font is too small then you can set the default font type here. The font style and size that
you set here will be used as the default for all of your scripts.

Banners

This tab is used if you want to change the colour or font style used for the prompter banner. The prompter bannere
is the information shown at the start of each script when it appears on the teleprompter.

Padding

Increasing this value will make your banner thicker.

Trailing Gap

Increasing this value will put a larger gap between the banner
and the first line of text.

Fields to Display

This control changes the order of the Item Title and the Item
Number.

Multilingual Support

QMaster can be used in many different languages but you must install the correct language fonts for the language
that you would like to use. This is set-up from within Windows. QMaster does not support Complex Languages,
such as Arabic, If you have a requirement to use a Complex Language please contact the Technical Support team at
Autocue.

Select the required language you would like to use for your scripts from the drop-down list.

News Interfaces

QMaster can interface with the newsroom computer systems (NRCS) from most of the leading manufacturers. All
NRCS interfaces are optional items which must be purchased. If an NRCS has been enabled in your licence file the
QMaster Configuration interface will show an entry labelled News Interfaces as illustrated below.
