Using Cómo with an infinitive

If I want to title a PowerPoint presentation slide to say "how to create a stained glass window". Can I say "Cómo Crear un Vitral". Or do I need to say "Cómo Creas un Vitral".

This is a non native opinion: you can say either or a third possibility: Cómo se crea un vitral. You don't need to capitalize every word in a Spanish title, just the first.. - Jubilado, Oct 14, 2014

"Como Crear un Vitral" is a better choice for being professional.

You could also say it in passive voice: "Como se Crea un Vitral".

Yes! But what about capitalization, maestro? - Jubilado, Oct 14, 2014
That seems to be slowly changing, so both ways are probably accepted gramatically - 005faa61, Oct 14, 2014

This gives a number of examples that support my belief that you can use the infinitive there. Please wait for other opinions as well.
