How PIP_ArtisticWords Works

At its core, PIP_ArtisticWords works by overlaying artistic text onto your images. It uses a combination of smart typography and visual effects to ensure that the text not only stands out but also complements the image. Imagine it as a digital artist that knows exactly how to place and style text so that it looks like a natural part of the image. The extension automatically adjusts the font size and position, ensuring that the text fits perfectly within the image's visual safe area. It also supports various effects like gradients, shadows, and glows, which can be combined to create unique text styles.
