To answer your question: Here us how I would do it.
Go to the Title Room (F7) located on the left hand side has a big "T" symbol.
You are going to create a Template Subtitle you can use for all future videos.
Click on the little arrow just to the right to expand it and you will see all sorts of pre-built Title templates.
Click on the Business folder with the 4 templates.
Double click on anyone of those. Once it opens change the text to Arial 12 font for example and choose "Save as"
Name it "My subtitle" or whatever. Now save. You can also add more text boxes using the +Tt looking symbol upper left.
As well as different scrolling motions, colors, wipes etc.
When you save it, it will now show up in your "Custom" folder.
You can now drag this to your timeline change the background to black and use white text.
Stretch it to however long you want to match the video. You can also doubleclick on it and move it around on
your video to position it anywhere you want.
The built in Subtitle Room (F12) is okay but very limited- I prefer the above which offers much more flexibility.
Happy experimenting.
