TextOverlay Node for ComfyUI

The TextOverlay node allows users to overlay text on images. The node supports adjustments for font size, type, color, alignment, and position, making it versatile for various applications.

Originally inspired by the Text Overlay Plugin by mikkel, this node has been rebuilt and expanded to include additional features and improvements.

Features

• Font Customization: Choose from different font sizes and types to match your design.
• Color Selection: Specify text and stroke colors in hex format for perfect matching.
• Alignment and Positioning: Align your text horizontally and vertically, with options for precise position adjustments.
• Stroke Customization: Add a stroke to your text with customizable color and thickness.
• Supports Single and Batch Processing: Process single images or multiple images in a batch.

Installation

To use the TextOverlay node, ensure this repo is included in your ComfyUI custom_nodes directory.

1. Find the custom_nodes directory in your ComfyUI installation.
2. Clone this repository into the custom_nodes directory using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Munkyfoot/ComfyUI-TextOverlay

Usage

After installation, the TextOverlay node will be available in the ComfyUI interface under the image/text category. To use the node:

1. Add the TextOverlay node to your workflow.
2. Connect an image source to the node's image input.
3. Configure the node parameters in the UI, including text content, font specifications, color, alignment, and positioning adjustments.
4. Connect the node's output to your desired destination in the workflow.

Custom Fonts

To use a custom font, ensure the font file is included in the fonts directory within this directory. Then, specify the font file name (e.g., arial.ttf) in the font parameter of the TextOverlay node. If using a system-installed font, you can specify the font name directly without the file path. If the font file is not found, the node will default to a system-installed font.

• image: The input image(s) to overlay text on.
