Tips on subtitles please ...

It's been a couple of years since my last subtitled project, so I'd like to update my knowledge ready for an upcoming job.

I'm particularly interested in ways of creating two line subtitles, firstly from Regions. Previously this was only possible with a privately written script, and a vertical line ( | ) had to be put in the region name to designate the required line break. I have read recently about text wrapping, so it seems the Subtitle from Regions script included with Vegas does this automatically - but, is there any way of controlling the wrap point?

Similarly, if the Subtitles are done as a text file, is it a simple matter of creating each line for line, with a line break to start a new subtitle?

Any information much appreciated ..
