How to draw text on an image in C#

How to draw text on an image in C#?

First, You need to import System.Drawing and System.Drawing.Imaging to work with images and drawing operations.

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;

You can load an image from a file, stream, or create a blank image to work with.

// Load an existing image from file
string fileName = "C:\\test.jpg"
Image image = Image.FromFile(fileName);

Next, Create a Graphics object to draw on the image. 

Graphics graphics = Graphics.FromImage(image);

You’ll need to specify the font and color for the text.

Font font = new Font("Arial", 20, FontStyle.Bold);
Brush brush = new SolidBrush(Color.Black); // Text color (black)

Use the Graphics.DrawString method to draw the text on the image. You need to specify the text, the font, the brush, and the position where the text will be drawn.

// Draw the text on the image at position (100, 100)
graphics.DrawString("C# Programming", font, brush, new PointF(100, 100));

Once you’ve drawn the text, you can save the image back to a file or use it in any other way.

image.Save("C:\image_with_text.jpg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);

Make sure to dispose of the Graphics and Font objects to release resources.

// Dispose of resources
graphics.Dispose();
font.Dispose();
image.Dispose();
