I have in fact investigated this. In Cinecanvas the distance from the picture border is specified as a percentage from the text baseline to the border.

De facto standard seems to be 8% from the bottom border (and a point size of 42).

From: http://www.dlp.com/downloads/pdf_dlp_cinema_cinecanvas_rev_c.pdf

"VPosition: The vertical position to start the text string at.
VPosition is specified as a percentage of the picture height from the
edge or center specified in the VAlign attribute. To start the text at
a location that is 20% of the picture height from the bottom edge of
the picture, VAlign="bottom" VPosition ="20.0". The vertical position
specified is the position of the baseline for the characters drawn.
Specifying VAlign="top" VPosition="0" will result in characters being
drawn off the top of the screen. Similarly, specifying VAlign=”bottom”
VPosition=-"0" will result in the descents of certain characters, like
‘g’, being drawn off the bottom of the screen. Default VPosition = 0"

Excerpts from a few studio titles:

Please also see bug 1614. Maybe these should be marked as duplicates?
