Typed Text

The Typed Text mark enables the end user to add descriptive text to their annotated image or document. The text can be created in various fonts, sizes, colors. The text appears over the original image or document.

If you wish to rotate the mark, you must use a Windows True Type font (this is a Windows limitation).

Edit Mode:

End users create this mark by clicking the Typed Text button with the left mouse button and then dragging the resulting rectangle over the area to be annotated. This rectangle helps to position the Text annotations. Text annotations are easily modified when the application is in the Edit mode. To modify it, the end user double-clicks the left mouse button when the cursor is over the text mark. The cursor appears at the beginning of the text, and transforms to allow editing.

If end users create a text mark without any text with a Transparent background, the resulting mark will exist but will not be visible.
