What is Add Text to Image?

Add Text to Image is a free online editor that writes custom text directly onto photographs. Add captions, titles, watermarks, copyright notices, or meme text with complete positioning control. Drag text boxes to any location, resize by pulling corners, and rotate for creative angles. Customize font family from Arial to Impact for meme-style bold text, adjust size from 10-200px, and choose any color with the color picker. Perfect for creating social media graphics, annotated screenshots, photo credits, or funny meme images.

How to Add Text to Pictures Online

Upload your photo to begin adding text overlays. Type your caption, title, or message in the text content box, then click "Add Text to Image" to place it on your photo. The text appears as an interactive object you can drag anywhere on the image canvas. Click and drag text to reposition, pull corner handles to resize, and use the rotation handle above to tilt text at any angle. Change font family to Impact for bold meme text or Georgia for elegant serif captions. Adjust size slider for tiny watermarks or massive headline text.

Drag, Resize, and Rotate Text Freely

Unlike basic text tools with fixed positioning, this editor provides full manipulation freedom using Fabric.js canvas technology. Click any text object to select it - blue selection handles appear around the text bounding box. Drag from the center to move text to new positions without resizing. Pull corner handles outward to enlarge text or inward to shrink. Grab the circular rotation handle above the text box and drag sideways to rotate at any angle from 0-360 degrees. Add multiple text objects with different fonts, sizes, and colors - each independently movable and editable.

When to Use Text on Images

Add text to images for Instagram captions requiring emphasis text burnt into photos, motivational quote graphics with inspirational text over scenic backgrounds, meme creation with Impact font top/bottom text on funny photos, product photography needing size or price annotations, tutorial screenshots requiring numbered step instructions with arrows, real estate listings showing room dimensions directly on photos, or copyright watermarking with transparent text protecting image ownership. Essential for any scenario where text must integrate with visual content rather than existing separately as image description.

Font Customization and Text Styling

Choose from 9 popular web-safe fonts guaranteed to display consistently: Arial and Helvetica for clean modern sans-serif, Times New Roman and Georgia for traditional serif elegance, Courier New for monospace coding aesthetics, Impact for bold attention-grabbing meme text, Comic Sans MS for casual friendly vibes, Verdana for excellent screen readability, or Trebuchet MS for contemporary humanist style. Font size slider ranges 10-200 pixels accommodating tiny photo credits to dominant headline text. Color picker supports full RGB spectrum plus hex code input for brand-accurate color matching. Download with text permanently rendered into the image in PNG format for transparency support or compressed JPG/WebP for smaller file sizes.
