ComfyUI Node: Text Image ♾️Mixlab

Text Image ♾️Mixlab:

The TextImage node is designed to generate images from text, providing a versatile tool for AI artists to create visually appealing text-based graphics. This node allows you to input text and customize various parameters such as font, size, color, and layout direction, enabling the creation of both horizontal and vertical text images. The primary goal of the TextImage node is to offer a flexible and user-friendly way to convert textual content into image format, which can be particularly useful for creating custom graphics, annotations, or artistic text renderings.

Text Image ♾️Mixlab Input Parameters:

text

The text to be rendered into an image. This parameter accepts a string of text, which can include line breaks to create multi-line text images. The content of this text will be displayed in the generated image.

font_path

The file path to the TrueType font (.ttf) file to be used for rendering the text. This parameter allows you to choose a specific font style for your text image. Ensure the path is correct to avoid errors.

font_size

The size of the font to be used for the text. This parameter determines how large or small the text will appear in the image. The value should be a positive integer, with larger values resulting in larger text.

text_color

The color of the text in the image. This parameter accepts a tuple representing the RGB values of the color (e.g., (255, 255, 255) for white). It allows you to customize the appearance of the text to match your design needs.

vertical

A boolean parameter that determines the layout direction of the text. If set to True, the text will be rendered vertically; if False, it will be rendered horizontally. This option provides flexibility in how the text is displayed.

stroke

A boolean parameter that specifies whether the text should have an outline (stroke). If set to True, the text will be outlined with the specified stroke color and width, adding emphasis and readability.

stroke_color

The color of the text outline (stroke). This parameter accepts a tuple representing the RGB values of the color. It is used only if the stroke parameter is set to True.

stroke_width

The width of the text outline (stroke). This parameter determines how thick the outline around the text will be. It is used only if the stroke parameter is set to True.

spacing

The amount of space between lines of text. This parameter accepts an integer value, allowing you to adjust the line spacing for multi-line text images.

padding

The amount of padding around the text within the image. This parameter accepts an integer value, providing space between the text and the edges of the image.

Text Image ♾️Mixlab Output Parameters:

img_result

The generated image containing the rendered text. This output is an image object that can be used in further processing or saved to a file. It represents the final visual result of the text-to-image conversion.

Text Image ♾️Mixlab Usage Tips:

• To create a visually appealing text image, experiment with different font styles and sizes by adjusting the font_path and font_size parameters.
• Use the text_color and stroke_color parameters to ensure the text stands out against the background, especially if the image will be used in a complex design.
• Adjust the padding parameter to provide sufficient space around the text, preventing it from being too close to the image edges.
• For multi-line text, use the spacing parameter to control the distance between lines, ensuring readability and aesthetic balance.

Text Image ♾️Mixlab Common Errors and Solutions:

"FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'font_path'"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the specified font file cannot be found at the given path.
• Solution: Verify that the font_path is correct and that the file exists at the specified location. Ensure the path is absolute or correctly relative to the working directory.

"ValueError: unknown color specifier"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the text_color or stroke_color parameter is not provided in the correct format.
• Solution: Ensure that the color parameters are tuples representing RGB values, such as (255, 255, 255) for white.

"TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable"

• Explanation: This error occurs when a parameter expecting a tuple (e.g., text_color) is given an integer instead.
• Solution: Check that all color parameters are provided as tuples of three integers representing RGB values.

"OSError: cannot open resource"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the specified font file cannot be opened, possibly due to file corruption or incorrect format.
• Solution: Ensure the font file is a valid TrueType font (.ttf) and is not corrupted. Try using a different font file to see if the issue persists.
