About the Text on Image Tool
Adding copyright notices, captions, logos, or call-to-action text to images is essential for professional content creators. DCPIXEL's text overlay tool gives you full control over typography and positioning, with a real-time preview that updates as you type — all processed locally without sending your image to any server.
100% Private — Processed in Your Browser
Every file stays on your device. DCPIXEL processes images entirely using the browser's built-in Canvas API and WebAssembly — zero server uploads, zero data collection.
Free — No Account, No Limits
DCPIXEL is completely free with no daily limits, no watermarks, and no registration. We never process your files on our servers, so we can offer this permanently at no cost.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I adjust the opacity of the watermark?+
Yes. The opacity slider ranges from 0 (invisible) to 100 (fully opaque). A setting of 30-50% is typically ideal for visible but non-intrusive watermarks on photographs.
Where can I position the watermark on the image?+
Choose from 9 preset positions: 4 corners, 4 edge centers, and the image center. The watermark is rendered precisely at the chosen position regardless of image size.
Can I add a logo or image as a watermark instead of text?+
This tool adds text-based watermarks. Use the Add Logo tool for image-based overlays. Both are free and browser-based.
Will the watermark be visible if someone screenshots my image?+
Yes. The watermark is burned directly into the image pixels. It cannot be removed by simply right-clicking and saving — it is as permanent as any other part of the image.
