Can the Pixlr API be used to add/edit text?


I'm developing an online tool that involves image editing. Pixlr is my first choice for use, but one thing I noticed while looking around the developer area is that there is no option to add/edit text to an image.

See examples of Pixlr API here. Even in the "Open Image Editor" example, which to me implies the full editor suite of tools, there is no option to drop text onto an image. Is there a way to do this? Or perhaps another online tool (or self-hosted) solution to do this?


Solution

  • I clicked on your link for the API examples, clicked the last image under "Open image editor", and one of the five options at the bottom was to add text:
