Add text to an image in your email

Lay text over an image while editing your email

Once you've added an image to your Library, you can lay text over it while editing your email using our advanced image editing tools. Adding the text after you upload it helps to keep the text from appearing grainy if you have to resize your image.

1. Click on the image and click Replace.
   
   
    
2. Click Edit.
   
   
    
3. Select the Text option from the panel on the left.
4. Use the tools to add and style your text:

• Font - Select a font, size, color, alignment, and color.
• Background - Add a background color to make the text stand out from the image. 
• Spacing - Adjust the padding between lines of text.

5. (Optional) Use the drag handles to resize or rotate the text box.
6. (Optional) Use the toolbar to:

• Bring the text box to the front so that your text displays on top of any other elements you've added to the image.
• Copy the text box.
• Delete the text box.

7. When you're finished making edits, click Export.
   
   
    
8. Click Insert.
   
   
    

Important: Make sure to include a caption or add an image description to any images that include text. If your contacts have email clients that don't display images, or if they're using a screen reader, you can still give them an idea of what they're not seeing.
