Frequently Asked Questions
How do I add text or captions to a photo online?
Upload your picture, type your text into the input field, and choose your desired font family, size, text color, and alignment. You can drag the text box anywhere on the canvas to position your caption, title, or label perfectly.
Can I add a background banner behind the text for better readability?
Yes. You can toggle a solid or semi-transparent background box behind your text, ensuring your caption remains easy to read regardless of whether the photo underneath is dark, bright, high-contrast, or visually busy.
Which fonts and text styling options are available?
You can choose from modern sans-serif, classic serif, and monospaced typography, adjust bold and italic weights, tweak font sizing, and customize outline strokes and drop shadows to make your words pop against complex photographic backgrounds.
Can I add multiple lines of text or titles to the same picture?
Yes. You can type multi-line captions or add distinct headline and sub-headline text blocks with independent formatting across different areas of your photograph, making it simple to create infographics, greeting cards, or promotional social banners.
Will adding text reduce the resolution of my original photo?
No. Text is rendered directly onto the full-resolution bitmap using the browser's high-DPI Canvas API, ensuring crisp typography while retaining 100% of your photo's original pixel sharpness and visual fidelity.
