Applying Text to Photos

Applying text to a photo:
You can apply text to a photo at its original size or at the size displayed in the Viewer window. To apply text to a photo's original size choose Apply Text to Picture from the Edit menu. Choose Apply Text to Scaled Picture to apply text to a picture with the dimensions of the current size of the Viewer window (if it is open).

In the Apply Text window enter the text. Use the sliders to position the text. Choose a font, size, color, and style.

Click the speech bubble icon to add any saved picture comments to the text.

NOTE: It is possible to apply several different groups of words to a picture and each group of words can have its own attributes (font, size, color, and style). Here is how it's done:

Step 1. enter, position, and format the text for the first group of words as described above
Step 2. click somewhere in the picture OR click the New Text button to apply the text to the picture
Step 3. move the horizontal and vertical sliders to the position for the second group of words.
Step 4. enter the new text and set its attributes
Repeat Steps 2, 3, and 4 as desired

The Undo Text button removes the last group of words applied as described in step 2 above.

NOTE: If the photo is larger than the display area use the scroll bars to position the photo in the display area as desired.
