Three modes, one editor

What this photo text editor does

Most photo editors add new text on top of a picture. This one works on the text that is already part of it, which is what you need when the words are printed on a sign, a package or a poster in the photo.

  1. 01

    Edit: replace words in the same lettering

    Type each piece of text as it appears and what it should say, up to five per edit. The new words take the font, weight, color, size, position and texture of the old ones; everything else stays.

  2. 02

    Remove: erase text and fill the background

    Take every word off the photo, or only the ones you list. The space is filled with the surface around it, so the photo looks as if the text was never there.

  3. 03

    Translate: the same design in another language

    Pick one of 20 languages and every line is rewritten in place in a similar font. Brand names, numbers and prices are kept.

  4. 04

    Every result at your photo's size

    The edited photo has the same pixel size as the one you uploaded, so it drops back into the listing, slide or post it came from. Drag across it to compare with the original.

Real results, not mock-ups

Photo text editor examples: before and after

Drag across each picture to compare. These are unretouched results from the model the editor uses, at the same size as the photo that went in.

  • The same chalkboard now reading HOT CHOCOLATE $4, OPEN 7AM in matching chalk lettersCafé chalkboard sign reading FRESH COFFEE $3, OPEN 7AMBeforeAfter

    Edit: a chalkboard menu

    "FRESH COFFEE $3" became "HOT CHOCOLATE $4" in the same hand-drawn chalk letters, and "OPEN 7AM" stayed as it was.

  • The same chalkboard sign with all writing removedCafé chalkboard sign reading FRESH COFFEE $3, OPEN 7AMBeforeAfter

    Remove: the same board, wiped

    Every word erased, with the chalk smudges and the board's texture filled back in where the letters were.

  • The same poster translated to Spanish: OFERTA DE VERANO, 50% DE DESCUENTO EN TODORed shop window poster reading SUMMER SALE, 50% OFF EVERYTHINGBeforeAfter

    Translate: a poster in Spanish

    "SUMMER SALE, 50% OFF EVERYTHING" became "OFERTA DE VERANO, 50% DE DESCUENTO EN TODO" in the same white and yellow capitals.

The test photos were made with an AI image model for this page, so you can see a clean before and after. The results are single, unretouched edits from gpt-image-2, the model the editor uses.

Against the usual way

Photo text editor or a layer-based editor?

Changing printed words in a photo by hand means removing the old text, rebuilding the background behind it, finding a matching font and setting the new text in the right perspective. Here is when each way fits.

  1. 01

    Use this editor for a quick, faithful change

    When you have only the flat photo and want a few words different in the same style, in about a minute, without layers, masks or fonts to find.

  2. 02

    Use a design tool when you have the source file

    If you still have the original design with its text layers, changing the text there is exact and free. This editor is for when the words are part of the picture.

  3. 03

    Use a design tool for exact typography

    When the font, the kerning and every letter must be precisely a brand's, set the text yourself. The AI matches the look closely but does not use the font file.

  4. 04

    Combine them

    Remove the old text here to get a clean background, then set your exact words on it in a design tool.

Four steps

How to use the photo text editor

  1. 01

    Upload the photo

    A JPG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB with text on it: a sign, poster, label, menu, T-shirt, screenshot or meme.

  2. 02

    Choose Edit, Remove or Translate

    Then type the old and new text, list what to remove (or remove all), or pick the language.

  3. 03

    Press the button

    Sign in when you press it, and your photo and text wait for you. Your first edit is free; after that an edit is 125 credits ($0.50). In our tests an edit took 30 to 80 seconds.

  4. 04

    Compare and download

    Drag across the result to compare, read every word, and download the photo at its original size. Every edit stays in My edits.

Who it is for

Who uses a photo text editor

  1. 01

    Shops and online sellers

    Update prices and offers on product photos and banners, take stickers off packshots, and translate listing images for other markets.

  2. 02

    Cafés, restaurants and venues

    Change a dish or a price on a photo of the menu board, the hours on a door sign or the date on an event poster.

  3. 03

    Designers and marketers

    Show a client a headline on a billboard photo, or make language versions of a creative before anything is rebuilt.

  4. 04

    Anyone with a typo in an image

    Fix a misspelled word in a flyer, an invitation or a social image you only have as a picture.

Honest limits

Where this photo text editor falls short

  1. 01

    Tiny or blurry text

    Small print, heavy blur or text at a steep angle is harder to read and to match; nearby small text can change too.

  2. 02

    A misspelled word now and then

    AI image models can get a letter wrong. Read the result; edit it again to fix a word. A failed edit returns its credits.

  3. 03

    One photo at a time

    Each edit works on one photo and up to five pieces of text. Batch editing many photos at once is not available.

  4. 04

    Not for documents meant as proof

    Do not edit IDs, receipts, certificates or contracts, or photos you have no right to change; the terms forbid it.

Photo text editor: questions and answers

What is a photo text editor?

A tool that changes the text that is already in a photo, rather than adding new text on top. This one replaces words in the same lettering, removes text and fills the background, or translates the text into another language, using AI.

Is this photo text editor free?

Your first edit is free, with no card needed; you sign in when you press the button. After that each edit is 125 credits ($0.50), bought as a one-time $5 pack of ten. There is no subscription.

Can the photo text editor match the font in my photo?

It matches the look: font style, weight, color, size, position, perspective and texture, including handwriting and chalk. It does not tell you the font's name or use a font file, so for a brand's exact typography set the text in a design tool.

Does the photo text editor change the rest of my photo?

It is told to keep everything except the text you ask about: people, objects, colors, lighting and framing. The result has your photo's pixel size. Details right next to the edited text can shift slightly, so compare with the slider.

How many words can I change with the photo text editor?

Up to five pieces of text per edit, each a phrase or line of up to 120 characters. Remove mode can take all text off at once, and Translate mode translates every line.

Which file types does the photo text editor take?

JPG, PNG and WebP up to 10 MB. You get back the edited photo at the same size, ready to download.

How long does an edit take?

In our tests an edit took 30 to 80 seconds. You can leave the page; the result is saved in My edits.

Is there an app?

No app to install: the editor runs in the browser on a phone or a computer. Sign-in and payment go through FloatPass, so you do not create a separate password here.

Are my photos used to train AI?

No. Your photos and results are kept at long, unguessable addresses so you can come back to them, and never used for training. Write to contact@editphototextai.com and we delete them within 30 days.
