Text

1. Choose the Text tool (T).
2. Click the canvas where the text should go.
3. Type your text in the Add Text dialog. The preview shows the result on your drawing.
4. Click Ok.

Text can’t be edited later

When you click Ok, the text becomes pixels on the active layer. You can’t change the words or the font afterwards. Put text on its own layer, so you can delete it and try again.

In the Dialog

The dialog has three tabs: Text, Font, and Color.

• Font: pick a font, Size, Line Height, Letter Spacing, alignment (left, center, right), Bold, and Italic.
• Color: the fill and the outline (stroke), each with its own color and opacity.
• Rotation: rotates the text.

In the preview, drag to move the text. Scroll, or use the zoom buttons, to zoom in.

Fonts

Kleki comes with your system’s basic fonts, such as Sans-serif and Serif, and a selection of others, such as Caveat, Dancing Script, Pixeloid Sans, and Silkscreen.

Import a Font

Click Import in the Font tab to use a font file from your device: TTF, OTF, WOFF, WOFF2, or EOT.

Imported fonts are only kept until you reload Kleki. Import them again after a reload.

If something is selected, the text is only drawn inside the selection.
