The main problem with removing text from an ordinary image, is that while one 
can possibly
select the text (by color, or some such) and delete it ("Edit->Clear"), one is 
left with a text-shaped hole in 
the image - either background color or transparent if there is an alpha channel.
An earlier reply suggested that if the replacement text were larger than the 
original, it could 
perhaps be placed above the hole, centered, and thus block the hole with the 
new text.
There is a remote chance that the image is such that Heal Selection could fill 
in the holes without
leaving objectionable artifacts, and then one would be able to just make new 
text and place it
where wanted in the image.
Your new text should remain as a separate layer, positioned above the rest of 
the image,
and the image saved as GIMP's .xcf file type, so that you don't have this 
problem again.

Heal Selection is a plug-in, available separately and installed, or possibly 
already part of certain
GIMP packages (Partha?).

Subject: [Gimp-user] Replace text from given pic

I'd like to replace a text from a given picture like: 
- remove text
- change font
- write new text

How do I do this?
