Working with Text
Corel Painter lets you position and
manipulate editable text on your
image.
The Text Layer
A text layer holds a single text block.
When you create a new text layer with
the text tool, that layer becomes visible
on the Layers palette, and is
represented by a T icon. With the text
on a separate layer, you can work with
your image without changing any text
attributes. You can select the text layer
and edit it at any time. Your text
remains fully editable until you drop it
onto the canvas.
The Text palette.
To create text:
1 Choose Window > Show Text to
display the Text palette.
If the Text palette is not expanded,
click the palette arrow.
2 Choose the Text tool from the
toolbox.
3 Click anywhere in the document
window, and type.
