.idx file question

[runnguy]

i have a .sub and .idx file that are displaying some pretty horrible and hard to read subtitles. is there anything i can do about this? in particular i'd like to change the font style and also make it not italicized

Im not an expert by any means, found this thread while looking for a way to play idx subtitles with my vlc to begin with. However, while looking on the net i read that idx subtitles are actually little images, not text. And thus you can not edit them in any way.
