Adding letters or text to an image in Paint is a simple process primarily utilizing the program's dedicated text tool.
To place text onto your picture, you need to follow a few straightforward steps. According to the standard process for adding text in Paint:
Steps to Add Text
- Begin by opening the image you wish to add text to within the Paint program.
- Next, you need to locate and select the "Text" tool.
- This essential tool can be found on the toolbar located on the left side of the screen.
- The Text tool is easily identified by its icon, which looks like a capital "T".
- Once the tool is selected, click directly on the image at the specific location where you want the text to appear.
| Action | Tool Name | Icon | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add Text to Image | Text Tool | T | Left Toolbar |
After you click on the image, a text box will appear where you clicked. You can then begin typing your desired letters or words into this box. Once the text box is active, additional options for formatting like font style, size, and color typically become available in the ribbon bar at the top of the window, allowing you to customize the appearance of your text before clicking away from the box.
