How to Create Picture Inside Text Effect

Upload any image, type your text, choose a bold font, and instantly see the photo filling the letter shapes. This tool uses HTML5 Canvas to clip your image within the text boundary — the same technique as Photoshop's clipping mask, but entirely in your browser.

Tips for Best Results

Use bold, thick fonts like Anton, Black Ops One, or Impact — they show more of the image inside each letter. Short words or single lines work best. Landscape images with rich detail create the most striking effects. Adjust font size and letter spacing to perfectly frame your image content.

Transparent Background Support

The output is a PNG with transparent background by default, so you can overlay the text-image on any design, website, or presentation. Switch to white or black backgrounds if you prefer a solid fill behind the text.
