Using Online Tools
Editing text in an image is no longer difficult to pass off to a designer. Whether you're looking to add words or change existing ones, online tools have made it super simple for anyone with basic tech skills. Here's our detailed guide on how to edit the text in an image:
- You can go with free online platforms like Vista Create depending on the editing level you require and the complexity of your project.
- In the chosen tool, upload it by either dragging and dropping it into the box provided or clicking 'Import' and then selecting it from computer files/photo gallery/Google Drive, etc.
- Click the 'Text' button at the top left corner of the screen or somewhere near the search option and start entering desired words into required fields using a keyboard that appears automatically after opening the text input field.
- Change font size, color, and alignment according to design requirements by using different buttons on the bottom menu bar next to the new text box beside the imported picture (style settings vary from the platform).
- Save work by pressing the 'Download' button available inside the newly opened window. Once the job is done, return to the home page unless satisfied.
Using Adobe Photoshop
Using the tools in this intuitive software, you can easily add or edit existing text on any image. Here are step-by-step instructions for editing text in a picture using Adobe Photoshop:
- Open the image file containing the text you want to edit in Adobe Photoshop.
- Select the 'Type Tool' from the toolbar at the top of your screen and click within your image where you want to add or change words/phrases.
- To select an existing word/phrase that needs to be edited, double-click it while still using Type Tool mode. From here, you can make edits directly within your image file!
- When creating new words/phrases within your photo using Type Tool, use options such as size adjustments (e.g., font size), color adjustments (e.g., font color), and other formatting changes (e.g., bolded type) available on the Control Panel at the top of your screen.
- Once all desired edits have been made - whether adding new phrases or editing existing ones - save changes by clicking File > Save As from the menu bar at the top of the screen and follow the prompts accordingly until complete.
Using GIMP
If you're looking for an easy and reliable way to edit the text in a picture, GIMP is also a good choice. Here's how you can use it:
- Download GIMP on your computer or device. It's free and open-source software that's safe to use.
- Open the image you want to modify with GIMP and select the "Text Tool" from the main menu.
- Drag the tool across the area where you want to add text and type out your word or phrase into the box that appears. You can also change font size, font type, color, alignment, etc., by selecting these options from the dropdown menus at this panel's bottom.
- To edit existing text from an image, click on it using Text Tool again like before and make adjustments until it looks perfect!
Now that all changes have been made, go ahead and save your work as either a JPEG or PNG file for later usage!
