- Drop shadow: for depth and contrast.
- Background plate: coloured rectangle behind text.
- Letter spacing, line height, alignment.
Tips for readable text on photos
Backgrounds with busy detail kill text legibility. Three fixes: (1) outline the text, (2) add a drop shadow, or (3) put a semi-transparent dark/light plate behind it. The first two work for short captions; the plate is for longer text. For darker plates over photos, also consider darkening the photo with our Vignette tool first.
Bulk processing
Premium accounts can apply the same text overlay to a batch of images — useful for consistent branding across product photos or social campaigns.
