Tips

  • Short text works best. For maximum impact, keep it to 8–16 characters.
  • Use the Auto Fit option to perfectly size text to the canvas width.
  • Try the Cinzel font for a classic, solemn look; EB Garamond is softer.
  • For thumbnails, add a background image and increase the darken slider to boost contrast.
  • Keyboard: 1–4 switch presets, D downloads, arrows fine‑tune vertical position.
