How do I add text to an image file using JSL

img = Open( "$SAMPLE_IMAGES/tile.jpg", jpg );
{x, y} = img << size;
img =img << Text( Center Justified, {50, 55}, "test" ); //？

Thanks!

I think you need to either have a display box or directly modify the pixels in the image

Names Default To Here(1);

img = Picture Box(Open("$SAMPLE_IMAGES/tile.jpg", jpg));
img << Add Text Annotation(
	Text("Text"),
	Text Box({0, 10, 200, 77})
);
