Browse and apply text animation presets as you would any other animation presets.

The text animation presets were created in an NTSC DV 720 x 480 composition, and each text layer uses 72-point Myriad Pro. Some preset animations move the text on, off, or through the composition. The animation preset position values may not be appropriate for a composition that is much larger or smaller than 720 x 480; for example, an animation that is supposed to start off-screen may start on-screen. You may need to adjust the text animator’s position values.

If the text isn't positioned as expected or the text disappears unexpectedly, adjust the text animator's position values in the Timeline panel or Composition panel.

After you apply a 3D Text animation preset, you may need to rotate the layer or add a camera to rotate around the layer to see the results of the 3D animation.

Text animation presets in the Paths category automatically replace the source text with the preset's name, change the font color to white, and may change other character properties.

The Fill And Stroke category of animation presets contains presets that may change the fill color and stroke properties of the preset that you apply. If the animation preset requires a stroke or fill color, the animation works only if you have assigned one to your text.
