Add Text to Image

Add Text to Image overlays a caption on a photo — a title, a quote, a label or a watermark. Choose the position, size and colour, and add an outline or background plate so it stays readable over any background. A live preview shows the text in place, and the export burns it into the image, all in your browser.
