3. Place your video right below the subtitle track. If the subtitle is little off, you can adjust the duration by dragging the edge of each text to shorten or prolong so the subtitle would match the video perfectly.

* Important Note*: The subtitle added with above steps in FCPX is hard-burned to your video, which means the subtitle always appears on your video on the lower third and cannot be turned off. To add subtitle as a separate track which can be turn on/off by media players, please refer this guide -  Creating and Adding Subtitles to Videos.
