What does Add Text to Images do?
Overlay a title, caption or callout onto images. Clear text overlays help turn a photograph into a banner, announcement or shareable visual. It is designed for people who need a focused, practical image workflow without moving between complicated editing panels.
CompIMG lets you keep the original image while making a new copy for the task at hand. Most standard editing happens locally in your browser, reducing unnecessary uploads and supporting a privacy-first workflow.
How to add text to images step by step
- Open the Add Text to Images tool and select your source image or drag images into the drop zone.
- Enter your watermark text or choose a logo image. Adjust size, opacity, color and placement. Preview the output before using it publicly.
- Enter caption text, adjust font size, color and position, then export.
- Click the processing button, review the download name and output type, then save the result to your device.
You can return to the workspace whenever you need to make another version. For tools that support multiple files, select the images together and use Download ZIP for convenient bulk export.
When should you use Add Text to Images?
Here are some real-world situations where this workflow is useful:

Recommended settings and image-quality tips
Keep the watermark visible without covering the image’s primary subject. A watermark discourages casual reuse but cannot prevent image theft.
Use high contrast between the caption and its background. Use a small representative image to test settings before processing many files. Keep an untouched copy of the source so you can revisit quality, color and dimensions later.
Formats, limits and privacy
Common input types include JPEG/JPG, PNG and WebP. GIF processing uses the first frame, and SVG is safely rasterized before editing. AVIF availability depends on browser support. The requested output is a browser-supported file format; if the browser cannot encode a chosen format, CompIMG displays an error rather than silently renaming the file.
Processing is performed on your device, so speed and available memory depend on your browser and device. Multiple very large photos may work better as smaller batches.
Frequently asked questions about Add Text to Images
Can a watermark guarantee protection against reuse?
No. It is a visible ownership cue, not DRM. A determined person can crop or retouch some watermarks.
Does Add Text to Images require signup or installation?
No account or desktop installation is required. You can access the tool from a modern browser on a desktop, laptop or compatible mobile device.
Does CompIMG change my original image?
No. The browser processes a separate copy and offers a new download. Your original local file remains unchanged unless you overwrite it manually after downloading.
Why might the output file be larger than my original?
Different image codecs, export settings, dimensions and source complexity affect size. Re-encoding an already-optimized image can increase its size. Always check the actual final file before deciding whether an export is useful.
Can I use the output on my website?
Yes, provided you own the source image or have the rights to publish it. Choose an appropriate image width, compression level and filename, and supply descriptive alternative text when publishing online.
