The whole office suite package, which includes a writer tool, spreadsheet, and presentation software, is more than just a life-altering invention. With many more features being rapidly developed, it has significantly transformed how academic and corporate work is handled. Initially intended for offices, the office suite has become indispensable for various tasks. Today, people use these tools to create assignments, business strategy reports, research papers, marketing or sales presentations, and perform data analysis.
Performing these hundreds of tasks would be impossible without an office suite. Over time, you can easily build on these reports and assignments by adding relevant pictures to further your explanations. Incorporating text within images is often done using the text box method, but this can disrupt formatting. With WPS Photos, you can seamlessly edit your photos and incorporate them into your documents and presentations without losing any formatting or perfection. In this guide, I will show you how to add text to an image in word/excel/powerpoint effectively.
Introduction to Annotation in WPS Photos
WPS Office has evolved to become one of the most versatile tools for both students and professionals. With AI integration and advanced PDF tools, it extends its capabilities beyond just document editing to include powerful annotation features. While you might expect these features to be limited to PDFs, WPS Photos takes it a step further by allowing you to annotate photos, whether taken from the web or captured by you.
WPS Photos offers multiple features to add notes, create comments, or draw creatively to enhance and explain what the picture represents. The annotation tool within WPS Photos allows you to:
1. Drawing & Marks
WPS Photos provides a versatile range of editing tools that allow you to do anything from freehand drawings to marks directly on your images. This feature is perfect for highlighting specific areas, drawing attention to important details, or simply adding a personal touch. Whether you need to underline text, encircle an important part of the image, or draw an arrow pointing to a specific element, the drawing tools in WPS Photos make it easy to customize your images effectively.
2. Text & Stickers
Adding text and stickers to your photos is made simple with WPS Photos. You can insert text boxes to provide captions, labels, or additional context directly on the image. The text feature is highly customizable, allowing you to choose fonts, colors, and sizes that fit your needs. Additionally, the sticker library offers a variety of pre-designed graphics that can be used to enhance your images, add fun elements, or convey specific messages visually. This combination of text and stickers provides a powerful way to annotate and decorate your photos.
3. Copy Selection
The copy selection tool in WPS Photos allows you to select and duplicate specific parts of an image. This feature is particularly useful for creating consistent annotations or repeating elements within your photos. For example, if you have a certain icon or mark that you want to appear multiple times on the same image, the copy selection tool lets you easily duplicate it without having to redraw it each time. This ensures uniformity and saves time, making your annotation process more efficient and professional.
And the annotation features are not the only aspect of WPS Photos that sets it apart from other photo editing tools. It offers numerous benefits that make it a strong competitor in the photo editing space:
AI Integration
WPS Photos comes equipped with AI integration that enhances its editing capabilities. With features such as the magic eraser and background remover, you can effortlessly edit your photos.
