Adding Text to Designs

Dripper's text layer is a full typography engine with 11 editing tools — far beyond basic text placement.

Adding text

Click + and select Text.
A text element appears on the canvas. Type your text to edit it.

Editing tools (11 tabs)

Text

Edit content, weight (normal/bold), style (normal/italic), alignment (left/center/right/justify), vertical alignment, line height, and letter spacing.

Font

Choose from 180+ Google Fonts across four categories: sans-serif, serif, display, and handwriting. Use the search bar to find fonts by name.

Fill

Text fill goes beyond flat color:

Solid color — Pick any color with the color picker or hex input.
Linear gradient — Two or more colors blending in a straight line.
Radial gradient — Colors radiating from a center point.
Image fill — Use an image as a clipping mask so your photo or texture shows through the text.

Effects

Text shadow, glow, stroke/outline (multiple stroke layers with individual colors and widths), bold, underline, and strikethrough.

Pattern

Tile the text element as a repeating pattern across the print area — grid, brick, or half-drop tiling modes.

Container

Wrap text in a styled container with:

Background color or gradient
Border (width, color, style)
Padding and corner radius
Container opacity

Path

Place text along a curved path — arc or circle. Great for badges, logos, and circular designs.

Resize, Move, Layer, Duplicate

Auto or manual resize modes, position adjustment, layer ordering, and cloning.

Tips for print text

Use high-contrast colors against the product color for readability.
Avoid very thin fonts — they may not reproduce well in print.
Preview your text on different product colors using the Product Color selector in the sidebar.
The Studio warns you if text overflows the available space.
