You can use the types in the System.Drawing namespace to accomplish what you want. I found a pretty good example of how to overlay text on images at http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/vbtextoverlay.asp. A search for ".NET image overlay text" should turn up some other good resources.

Can anyone suggest a solution or point me in the right direction? The image files contain data for viewing on my portable MP3 player, things like my address book, Google calendar info, weather forecasts, shopping lists, etc. Anything in a short text file (4 lines max). My original app is in CPython, made very simple to use due to the use of both PIL and PythonCard. It looks like PIL was going to be ported, but never completed. That's a shame, because PIL is so simple and powerful. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
