Why use this tool?
imgic’s text overlay tool gives you full control over how your words appear on an image. Choose from the fonts available on your system, set a precise font size, and pick any color for the text. Position the overlay anywhere on the canvas and fine-tune its opacity to blend it subtly or make it stand out. This is perfect for annotating screenshots, adding titles to social media graphics, or labeling product images for an online store. Your files never leave your device, so watermarked proofs and internal annotations stay completely private.

Frequently asked questions
Can I control where the text appears on the image?
Yes. You can place the text at any position on the canvas. Move it to the center, a corner, or any custom coordinate. Combined with adjustable font size and opacity, you have precise control over the final layout.
Is my file private and secure?
Completely. Your file is processed 100% inside your browser using the Web APIs built into your device. Nothing is uploaded to any server — imgic never sees, stores, or transmits your images. You can even use these tools offline once the page has loaded.
Which fonts can I use?
The tool renders text using the fonts installed on your operating system. Common choices like Arial, Helvetica, Times New Roman, and Georgia are available on virtually every device. If you need a specific typeface, install it locally and it will appear in the font list.
Can I adjust the transparency of the text?
Absolutely. The opacity slider lets you make the text fully opaque, semi-transparent, or barely visible. Lower opacity values work well for subtle branding, while full opacity ensures maximum readability for captions and labels.
Does adding text change the image dimensions?
No. The text is drawn on top of the existing canvas, so the output keeps the same width and height as the original image. No cropping, scaling, or padding is applied during the overlay process.
