I’ve done god only knows how many searches looking for a solution to this with no joy so any help you can offer would be great.

I’m after an image editor that has the following:

  1. Must be PHP or JavaScript (even jQuery) or some combo of the two
  2. Must allow images to be uploaded
  3. Must allow text to be dynamically added, resized, color changed and positioned
  4. Must allow fonts to be chosen from a list of fonts I upload to the server, not the basic browser fonts or Google Fonts etc.
  5. Must allow generation and download of new image based on the old image + the added text

This is for my users, none of whom are experienced enough to do offline image editing.

    What on earth are you talking about? How is an offline editor like Photoshop or GIMP in any way comparable to a simple app like the one i described in my post, that simply allows a user to add text to an image?

      Very comparable. There’s nothing wrong with getting a whole box of tools for free even if you just need a single screwdriver. Open image in GIMP, text tool, done.

        Sorry, I don’t want to be rude but youre talking rubbish.

        Getting all of them to install a big offline application with an interface that is totally new to them and will require a substantial learning curve if there’s a possible solution that allows them to simply and easily do the only thing they need is ridiculous.

          I think there’s a misunderstanding. What you’re talking about OP is the interface, what the others are talking about is the location. You’re not talking about the same thing, hence you’re not understanding them.

          Both sides are use the term offline/online, tho its meaning is not looks but instead location
