How to Edit Text in an Image in 3 Steps
1. Upload Your Image (PNG, JPG, WebP)
Drop the file into the RetypeWords workspace, browse for it, or paste it from your clipboard with Ctrl+V / Cmd+V. RetypeWords scans the picture and marks the text it detects with boxes. Changing the website language doesn't change the scan language.
Illustration: drop, browse or paste your image to start.
2. Select the Text & Type New Words
Select a box and make sure Original Text (Detected) matches the image exactly — fix any misread characters, such as an O read as a 0. Type the new wording in New Text (Replacement) and choose ADD. Repeat for every area you want to change; the Pending List shows the replacements queued for the task.
Illustration: select a detected box, check the original text, type the new words and choose ADD.
3. Compare & Download High-Res Result
Choose Generate. All replacements in the Pending List are processed together as one task for 1 credit. Compare the result with the original, read the new words, and review any change warnings. Choose the version you want to keep, then Download the PNG — sign in if prompted.

Why RetypeWords Instead of Photoshop?
Illustration: how text in a flattened image is edited without a source file.
No Source PSD or Layers Required
The words in a flattened JPG, PNG or WebP are pixels, so there is no text layer to reopen. RetypeWords finds the existing words for you and lets you replace them in your browser, with no design software to install and no source file to track down.
Automatic Visual Font Style Matching
RetypeWords uses the lettering already in your image as its reference for weight, color, size and spacing, so you don't need to know the font name. Match original font style automatically explains what the match covers.
Clean Inpainting Without Ruining Background
The old letters are erased and the area behind them is rebuilt from the surrounding color and texture before the new words are drawn. A full Before/After comparison lets you check the whole picture before you download.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What kinds of images can I upload?
PNG, JPG and WebP files up to 10 MB. Clear, readable printed text in digital graphics, screenshots and photos is the best place to start. Small, curved or heavily stylized lettering needs a closer look when you review the result.
Will the new text match the original font?
RetypeWords aims for a close visual match with the lettering already in your image — weight, color, size and spacing. It doesn't identify or install the original font, so compare the new letters with the original before you use the image. More on matching text style.
Is it free, and how do credits work?
You can try one image on this device before creating an account, with no credit card needed. Downloading requires an account, and free exports include a RetypeWords mark. After the trial, generating an image task costs 1 credit, including the replacements added before you choose Generate. Retries still available in the same task and downloads don't use extra credits, and if a task ends without producing an image, the credit is returned automatically. See Pricing.
Can I replace the text with a translation?
Prepare and proofread the translation you want to use. RetypeWords accepts wording you supply; it does not translate the image for you. Editing results for different languages and layouts still need to be checked.
What if the result isn't right?
Check the selected regions and original and replacement text. If the inputs are correct but the output is wrong, an available retry within the same task does not use another credit; attempts are limited, and earlier versions stay available. If you need to change the wording or selected areas, prepare a new task; generating it uses another credit. A generated image uses its credit even if you decide not to download it.
What should I check before using the result?
Read every replaced word, including numbers and punctuation. Then compare the full image with the original: generation redraws the picture, so nearby text, logos and background details can change too. RetypeWords flags changes it detects in other text, but detection isn't perfect — no warning doesn't mean nothing changed.
How long are my images kept?
Uploaded images, generated versions and exports are kept for 30 days and then expire. Download anything you need before then. Privacy Policy
Can I edit text in a PNG image?
Yes. Upload the PNG and select the words already in the picture. The text is part of the pixels, so RetypeWords redraws it rather than opening a text layer. JPG/JPEG and WebP work through the same workflow. See the image text editing walkthrough.
Can I erase text instead of replacing it?
Choose Remove text in the RetypeWords workspace, select the words and choose Add removal. Generate after checking the Pending List. You can also start in the image text remover.
