About Text on Image
Put words on any picture — a caption, a quote, a title for a thumbnail or a meme. Add as many texts as you like and drag them into place, with snapping to the centre.
Choose from Google fonts and classic fonts, set the size, colour, bold and italic, line spacing, opacity and rotation, and make text stand out with an outline, a shadow or a background box. The layout is relative to the picture, so the same captions can be put on many pictures at once.
Good for
- Memes and social media posts
- YouTube thumbnails and blog headers
- Quotes, captions and announcements on photos
Tip: Bold fonts like Anton or Bebas Neue with an outline read best on busy photos.
Frequently asked questions
Which fonts can I use?
Ten popular Google fonts — Montserrat, Roboto, Oswald, Bebas Neue, Anton, Playfair Display, Merriweather, Lobster, Pacifico and Dancing Script — plus fonts like Impact, Arial and Georgia.
How do I make a meme?
Click “Meme layout” for classic white Impact text with a black outline at the top and bottom, then type your captions.
How do I make text readable on a busy photo?
Add an outline or a shadow, or turn on a background box behind the text.
Can I add several texts?
Yes — add as many as you like; click one on the picture or in the list to edit it, and drag it to move it.
Does my photo stay on my device?
Yes. Your browser adds the text, and the picture is never uploaded.
Can I rotate the text?
Yes. Each text can be turned to any angle, so you can run a caption along a slanted edge or add a diagonal stamp.
