How do I add and edit text?

Text is the most common dynamic element in designs.

Adding Text

1. Click the Text tool in the left sidebar (or press T)
2. Click anywhere on the canvas
3. Start typing your text

Editing Text Properties

Select any text element to see these options in the right panel:

• Font Family: Choose from 500+ Google Fonts
• Font Size: Set in pixels
• Font Weight: Light, Regular, Bold, etc.
• Color: Click the color picker
• Alignment: Left, Center, Right, Justify
• Line Height: Spacing between lines
• Letter Spacing: Space between characters

Making Text Dynamic

To make text changeable via API:

1. Select the text element
2. In the right panel, find "Layer Name"
3. Enter a descriptive name like recipient_name
4. This name becomes the API parameter

Example API Call

json
{
  "dynamicElements": {
    "recipient_name": {
      "text": "John Smith"
    }
  }
}

Text Tips

• Use placeholder text like "[Name]" to visualize dynamic content
• Set a maximum width to prevent text overflow
• Test with long names to ensure your design handles them
