Image Text Watermark
Stamp a copyright notice, website address or name onto a photo as a text watermark. Type up to 200 characters, choose one of nine positions or tile the text across the image, and set the font size, color, opacity, margin and weight. The text is drawn with the built-in Inter typeface, shrinks automatically to fit the photo, and the result downloads as PNG, JPEG or WebP.
Frequently asked questions
Which font is used for the text?
The text is drawn with Inter, an open-source sans-serif typeface built into the tool, in regular or bold weight. Because the font is built in, the result looks the same no matter which fonts are installed on your device.
Which characters and languages are supported?
The font covers Latin letters with accents, Greek, Cyrillic, digits and common punctuation and symbols such as the copyright sign. Characters outside that range, for example Chinese, Japanese, Arabic or emoji, are rejected with a message that lists them.
How long can the watermark text be?
The text can be up to 200 characters. Line breaks start a new centered line, which is handy for a name above a website address.
What happens if the text is wider than the photo?
The font size is reduced automatically until the text fits inside the photo minus the margins. The size you enter is therefore a maximum, and short texts on large photos keep exactly that size.
How do I choose a color?
Enter a hex color such as #ffffff for white or #000000 for black; three-digit forms like #fff work too. White text at 50 to 70 percent opacity works on most photos, and dark text suits bright images.
What does the tile position do?
Tile repeats the text across the whole photo in a grid, which makes it hard to crop or retouch away. The margin is used as the spacing between the copies.
How do opacity and margin work?
Opacity from 1 to 100 percent controls how strongly the text covers the photo. The margin sets the distance in pixels between the text and the nearest edges for the corner and edge positions.
Which image formats can I upload and download?
You can upload JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF or AVIF images up to 5 MB. The result is a PNG by default, or JPEG or WebP at quality 90; transparent areas become white in JPEG output.
Is my photo resized?
Photos up to 4000 pixels on each side keep their size. Larger photos are scaled down to fit within 4000 pixels, and phone photos are turned upright using their EXIF orientation.
Is the text editable afterwards?
No. The text is merged into the pixels of the image, so it cannot be removed or edited later. Keep your original photo if you may want a different watermark.
