    HOW TO MOVE EXISTING TEXT IN A PHOTO .JPEG FILE


    I am using PAINT 3D to try and move just the text in a photo. When I create a text box around the text and drag it, it moves the text and the background as well which leaves a white box where it used to be... I haven't been able to find a way around this... Any tips / advice would be appreciated...My O/S is Windows 10 Pro / Ver 1903 thanks

    :)

    Windows 10 Photo - adding Text

    The Microsoft team suggests we use the Windows 10 'PAINT' ap. This is what I found works. Very cumbersome. Very slow. Very poor solution!

    Adding text to Windows 10 Photos

    Add Paint Ap to taskbar.

    • Start … lower left corner.
    • All aps
    • Windows … accessories … right-click ‘Paint’ … left click ‘add to taskbar’
    • Color palette now in taskbar at bottom of desktop


    Adding text to photo

    • Click/open ‘Paint’
    • ‘File’ … ‘Open’ … browse and select photo to adjust
    • ‘View’ … zoom out to reduce size
    • ‘Home’ … click on big A to prepare for paste or typing in text. New ‘text’ tab opens up at top of control menus.
    • Left-click on picture (but don’t drag) to set upper left corner or a text box which will automatically re-size to the text you are about to enter. Nothing happens yet … be patient.
    • Right-click and ‘paste’ … or … Control-tab and ‘V’ to paste in text taken from another source.
    • DON”T click again outside the box … keep working on the text until you are absolutely satisfied. You can’t get back to this text!
    • You can change size of box around text.
    • Can un-do or re-do changes.
    • ‘File’ … ‘save-as’ to uniquely save the file as ‘JPEG’
