How to Insert Text with Lines around the Letters

[waltl]

I know how to insert text that displays on a JPEG (choose font, type size, text color).

I would like the letters to display with lines around them, e.g., white letters with a black line.

How do I do that?

Use a drawing or page layout program. These tend to be more flexible as the text is not converted to bitmaps until you export the image.

The text tool in IrfanPaint will give you a few more options, but not this kind of power.

Adding text to an image in a page layout program like PagePlus is a breeze, with hundreds of preset special effects to choose from.

The text remains editable, and you can just export the image again with new quality settings as needed.
