Draw text

using var image = new MagickImage(new MagickColor("#ff00ff"), 512, 128);

new Drawables()
    // Draw text on the image
    .FontPointSize(72)
    .Font("Comic Sans")
    .StrokeColor(new MagickColor("yellow"))
    .FillColor(MagickColors.Orange)
    .TextAlignment(TextAlignment.Center)
    .Text(256, 64, "Magick.NET")
    // Add an ellipse
    .StrokeColor(new MagickColor(0, Quantum.Max, 0))
    .FillColor(MagickColors.SaddleBrown)
    .Ellipse(256, 96, 192, 8, 0, 360)
    .Draw(image);

Adding Text To Existing Image

var pathToBackgroundImage = SampleFiles.SampleBackground;
var pathToNewImage = Path.Combine(SampleFiles.OutputDirectory, "2FD-WithAddedText.jpg");
var textToWrite = "Insert This Text Into Image";

// These settings will create a new caption
// which automatically resizes the text to best
// fit within the box.

var settings = new MagickReadSettings
{
    Font = "Calibri",
    TextGravity = Gravity.Center,
    BackgroundColor = MagickColors.Transparent,
    Height = 250, // height of text box
    Width = 680 // width of text box
};

using var image = new MagickImage(pathToBackgroundImage);
using var caption = new MagickImage($"caption:{textToWrite}", settings);

// Add the caption layer on top of the background image
// at position 590,450
image.Composite(caption, 590, 450, CompositeOperator.Over);

image.Write(pathToNewImage);
