Adding text to pictures (e.g. like filenames to previews) automatically with XnConvert

[vi363R]

XnConvert (free for personal use) has an interesting output option to add filename or folder name to an image

i use it all the time to add the name of a file or folder to a download preview.

easy to set up and works flawlessly

so how does it work well

1. take screenshot
2. move/copy it to the folder you want its name to appear on the screenshot, i usually do that just before zipping it for upload
3. add the file to XnConvert list
4. add an action (Image/text)(app remembers them so required only once)
5. click on the small triangular arrow on the right of the text field
6. select filename or folder name
7. adjust options for size/position etc is usually take hi res H5 screenshots, then the text can be quite big
8. set some other action or output options and convert
