How to write on a photo
- Drop your photo.
- Type your text, choose the font, size and colour, then drag it into place.
- Add more texts if needed, then download the image.
Frequently asked questions
Does the text keep the photo’s quality?
Yes. The image is created at your photo’s original resolution, so the text stays sharp, even when large. A JPG is saved at 92% quality, which is invisible to the eye.
How do I make text readable on a busy photo?
Choose “Outline” or “Banner”: a black outline around white text (or the reverse) reads on any background, and a coloured banner behind the text sets it apart from the photo.
Can I add several texts?
Yes. Click “Add text” as many times as you need; each text has its own font, size, colour and position. Drag them on the image to place them.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Everything happens in your browser; the photo never leaves your device.
