How to write text on image in Objective-C (iOS)?

问题:

I want to make an image like this programmatically:

I have the upper image and text with me. Should I write text on the image?

I want to make it a complete .png image(image + label) and set it as the background of the button.

回答1:

Draw text inside an image and return the resulting image:

+(UIImage*) drawText:(NSString*) text 
             inImage:(UIImage*)  image 
             atPoint:(CGPoint)   point 
{

    UIFont *font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:12];
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(image.size);
    [image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0,0,image.size.width,image.size.height)];
    CGRect rect = CGRectMake(point.x, point.y, image.size.width, image.size.height);
    [[UIColor whiteColor] set];
    [text drawInRect:CGRectIntegral(rect) withFont:font]; 
    UIImage *newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    return newImage;
}

Usage:

// note: replace "ImageUtils" with the class where you pasted the method above
UIImage *img = [ImageUtils drawText:@"Some text"
                            inImage:img 
                            atPoint:CGPointMake(0, 0)];

Change the origin of the text inside the image from 0,0 to whatever point you like.

To paint a rectangle of solid color behind the text, add the following before the line [[UIColor whiteColor] set];:

[[UIColor brownColor] set];
CGContextFillRect(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), 
                  CGRectMake(0, (image.size.height-[text sizeWithFont:font].height), 
                                  image.size.width, image.size.height));

I'm using the text size to calculate the origin for the solid color rectangle, but you can replace it with any number.

My contribution to the first answer with iOS 7 support :

+(UIImage*) drawText:(NSString*) text
             inImage:(UIImage*)  image
             atPoint:(CGPoint)   point
{
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(image.size, YES, 0.0f);
    [image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0,0,image.size.width,image.size.height)];
    CGRect rect = CGRectMake(point.x, point.y, image.size.width, image.size.height);
    [[UIColor whiteColor] set];

    UIFont *font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:12];
    if([text respondsToSelector:@selector(drawInRect:withAttributes:)])
    {
        //iOS 7
        NSDictionary *att = @{NSFontAttributeName:font};
        [text drawInRect:rect withAttributes:att];
    }
    else
    {
        //legacy support
        [text drawInRect:CGRectIntegral(rect) withFont:font];
    }

    UIImage *newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    return newImage;
}

Hope this helps

EDIT: modified the UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions to handle screen scale. Thk @SoftDesigner

iOS7 only.

Watermark in lower right corner.

@interface UIImage (DrawWatermarkText)
-(UIImage*)drawWatermarkText:(NSString*)text;
@end
@implementation UIImage (DrawWatermarkText)
-(UIImage*)drawWatermarkText:(NSString*)text {
    UIColor *textColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.5 alpha:1.0];
    UIFont *font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:50];
    CGFloat paddingX = 20.f;
    CGFloat paddingY = 20.f;

    // Compute rect to draw the text inside
    CGSize imageSize = self.size;
    NSDictionary *attr = @{NSForegroundColorAttributeName: textColor, NSFontAttributeName: font};
    CGSize textSize = [text sizeWithAttributes:attr];
    CGRect textRect = CGRectMake(imageSize.width - textSize.width - paddingX, imageSize.height - textSize.height - paddingY, textSize.width, textSize.height);

    // Create the image
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(imageSize);
    [self drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, imageSize.width, imageSize.height)];
    [text drawInRect:CGRectIntegral(textRect) withAttributes:attr];
    UIImage *resultImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
    return resultImage;
}
@end

Usage:

UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"mona_lisa"];
image = [image drawWatermarkText:@"Leonardo da Vinci"];

Here is the Swift version.

func textToImage(drawText: NSString, inImage: UIImage, atPoint:CGPoint)->UIImage{

    // Setup the font specific variables
    var textColor: UIColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
    var textFont: UIFont = UIFont(name: "Helvetica Bold", size: 12)!

    //Setup the image context using the passed image.
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(inImage.size)

    //Setups up the font attributes that will be later used to dictate how the text should be drawn
    let textFontAttributes = [
        NSFontAttributeName: textFont,
        NSForegroundColorAttributeName: textColor,
    ]

    //Put the image into a rectangle as large as the original image.
    inImage.drawInRect(CGRectMake(0, 0, inImage.size.width, inImage.size.height))

    // Creating a point within the space that is as bit as the image.
    var rect: CGRect = CGRectMake(atPoint.x, atPoint.y, inImage.size.width, inImage.size.height)

    //Now Draw the text into an image.
    drawText.drawInRect(rect, withAttributes: textFontAttributes)

    // Create a new image out of the images we have created
    var newImage: UIImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()

    // End the context now that we have the image we need
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

    //And pass it back up to the caller.
    return newImage

}

To call it you just pass in an image.

textToImage("000", inImage: UIImage(named:"thisImage.png")!, atPoint: CGPointMake(20, 20))

The following links helped me get this straight.

How to write text on image in Objective-C (iOS)?

The original goal was to create a dynamic image that I could use in an AnnotaionView such as putting a price at a given location on a map and this worked out great for it. Hope this helps someone trying to do the same thing.

回答5:

I did something like this! After browsing and combining some examples.

Puts the text in the midle of the image, resizing the font if needed.

UIImage *myImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"promoicon.png"];
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(myImage.size);
[myImage drawInRect:CGRectMake(0,0,myImage.size.width,myImage.size.height)];
UITextView *myText = [[UITextView alloc] init];
myText.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"TrebuchetMS-Bold" size:15.0f];
myText.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
myText.text = NSLocalizedString(@"promotionImageText", @"");
myText.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

CGSize maximumLabelSize = CGSizeMake(myImage.size.width,myImage.size.height);
CGSize expectedLabelSize = [myText.text sizeWithFont:myText.font                     
                                          constrainedToSize:maximumLabelSize 
                                              lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];

myText.frame = CGRectMake((myImage.size.width / 2) - (expectedLabelSize.width / 2),
                                  (myImage.size.height / 2) - (expectedLabelSize.height / 2),
                                  myImage.size.width,
                                  myImage.size.height);

[[UIColor whiteColor] set];
[myText.text drawInRect:myText.frame withFont:myText.font];
UIImage *myNewImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

I have created fully customized extension for UIImage to draw watermark in Swift:

extension UIImage{

    enum WaterMarkCorner{
        case TopLeft
        case TopRight
        case BottomLeft
        case BottomRight
    }

    func waterMarkedImage(#waterMarkText:String, corner:WaterMarkCorner = .BottomRight, margin:CGPoint = CGPoint(x: 20, y: 20), waterMarkTextColor:UIColor = UIColor.whiteColor(), waterMarkTextFont:UIFont = UIFont.systemFontOfSize(20), backgroundColor:UIColor = UIColor.clearColor()) -> UIImage{

        let textAttributes = [NSForegroundColorAttributeName:waterMarkTextColor, NSFontAttributeName:waterMarkTextFont]
        let textSize = NSString(string: waterMarkText).sizeWithAttributes(textAttributes)
        var textFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, textSize.width, textSize.height)

        let imageSize = self.size
        switch corner{
        case .TopLeft:
            textFrame.origin = margin
        case .TopRight:
            textFrame.origin = CGPoint(x: imageSize.width - textSize.width - margin.x, y: margin.y)
        case .BottomLeft:
            textFrame.origin = CGPoint(x: margin.x, y: imageSize.height - textSize.height - margin.y)
        case .BottomRight:
            textFrame.origin = CGPoint(x: imageSize.width - textSize.width - margin.x, y: imageSize.height - textSize.height - margin.y)
        }

        /// Start creating the image with water mark
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(imageSize)
        self.drawInRect(CGRectMake(0, 0, imageSize.width, imageSize.height))
        NSString(string: waterMarkText).drawInRect(textFrame, withAttributes: textAttributes)

        let waterMarkedImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

        return waterMarkedImage
    }
}

As you see, I have added some default values for attributes so you can ignore if you don't need to change. Here some examples for how to use it:

let watermark1 = image.waterMarkedImage(waterMarkText: "@yourapp")

let watermark2 = image.waterMarkedImage(waterMarkText: "your app name", corner: .TopRight, margin: CGPoint(x: 5, y: 5), waterMarkTextColor: UIColor.greenColor())

let watermark3 = image.waterMarkedImage(waterMarkText: "appName", waterMarkTextColor: UIColor.blackColor(), waterMarkTextFont: UIFont(name: "Helvatica", size: 25)!)

Swift 4.0 version:

extension UIImage
{

    enum WaterMarkCorner
    {
        case TopLeft
        case TopRight
        case BottomLeft
        case BottomRight
    }

    func waterMarkedImage(text:String, corner:WaterMarkCorner = .BottomRight, margin:CGPoint = CGPoint(x: 20, y: 20), color:UIColor = UIColor.white, font:UIFont = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 20), background:UIColor = UIColor.clear) -> UIImage?
    {
        let attributes = [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: color, NSAttributedStringKey.font:font]
        let textSize = NSString(string: text).size(withAttributes: attributes)
        var frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: textSize.width, height: textSize.height)

        let imageSize = self.size
        switch corner
        {
            case .TopLeft:
                frame.origin = margin
            case .TopRight:
                frame.origin = CGPoint(x: imageSize.width - textSize.width - margin.x, y: margin.y)
            case .BottomLeft:
                frame.origin = CGPoint(x: margin.x, y: imageSize.height - textSize.height - margin.y)
            case .BottomRight:
                frame.origin = CGPoint(x: imageSize.width - textSize.width - margin.x, y: imageSize.height - textSize.height - margin.y)
        }

        // Start creating the image with water mark
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(imageSize)
        self.draw(in: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: imageSize.width, height: imageSize.height))
        NSString(string: text).draw(in: frame, withAttributes: attributes)
        let image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
        return image
    }

Here is a Swift version which correctly centers the text on the image. This works with text of various sizes.

func addTextToImage(text: NSString, inImage: UIImage, atPoint:CGPoint)     -> UIImage{

    // Setup the font specific variables
    let textColor = YOURCOLOR
    let textFont = YOUR SIZE

    //Setups up the font attributes that will be later used to dictate how the text should be drawn
    let textFontAttributes = [
        NSFontAttributeName: textFont,
        NSForegroundColorAttributeName: textColor,
    ]

    // Create bitmap based graphics context
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(inImage.size, false, 0.0)

    //Put the image into a rectangle as large as the original image.
    inImage.drawInRect(CGRectMake(0, 0, inImage.size.width, inImage.size.height))

    // Our drawing bounds
    let drawingBounds = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, inImage.size.width, inImage.size.height)

    let textSize = text.sizeWithAttributes([NSFontAttributeName:textFont])
    let textRect = CGRectMake(drawingBounds.size.width/2 - textSize.width/2, drawingBounds.size.height/2 - textSize.height/2,
        textSize.width, textSize.height)

    text.drawInRect(textRect, withAttributes: textFontAttributes)

    // Get the image from the graphics context
    let newImag = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

    return newImag

}

Considering performance, you should avoid having frequent calls to -drawRect:. Every UIView is backed with a CALayer and images as layer contents remain in memory as long as the CALayer stays in the hierarchy.This means that most of the operations you see in an application, including movement, rotation, and scaling of the view/layer, do not require a redraw.This means you can use add an CATextLayer on UIImageView , If you don't need a image with watermark. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/qa/qa1708/_index.html

- (void)addText:(NSString *)text inImageView:(UIImageView *)imageView { CATextLayer *textLayer = [CATextLayer layer]; UIFont *font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:14.0f]; CGSize textSize = [text sizeWithAttributes:@{NSFontAttributeName:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:14.0f]}]; textLayer.frame = CGRectMake((imageView.size.width - textSize.width)/2, (imageView.size.height - textSize.height)/2, textSize.width, textSize.height);; textLayer.string = text; textLayer.fontSize = font.pointSize; [imageView.layer addSublayer:textLayer]; }

Add this macro for degree to radian:

#define DEGREES_RADIANS(angle) ((angle) / 180.0 * M_PI)

UIImageView *imageView = [UIImageView alloc];
imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"img.png"];
UILabel *label = [UILabel alloc];
label.text = @"Your text";
[imageView addsubview:label];

Set the frame of the label where you want the label to be displayed.
