Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

As a Youtuber, can I use those texts in my videos or thumbnails?

Of course you can! TextStudio was also designed for this kind of use. If you're a free user, you simply need to put a hyperlink to textstudio.com in the description of the video concerned. As a Premium member, you don't need to do anything - this use case is covered by our license.

Do I have the right to use the site's graphic elements (fonts, text effects, images) to design and sell t-shirts on platforms like Etsy?

Yes, you can use the graphics available on our site to design and sell physical products, including t-shirts, via "Print-On-Demand" platforms (such as Redbubble, Teespring, Printful) or online stores such as Etsy. However, this use is strictly reserved for active PREMIUM subscribers. Please note that you may not resell, distribute or offer for sale any graphic element in its original form, whether as a digital file or printed in a form that would allow others to extract and use it. Your creations must be unique designs incorporating our graphics in an original and meaningful composition. If you have any doubts about the commercial use of graphic elements, please consult our license or contact us directly.

I have a Canva Pro subscription, why don't I have access to the Premium content of TextStudio Maker in Canva?

Canva Pro and TextStudio Premium are two different subscriptions. Canva Pro provides access to Canva's Premium features only. To use the Premium fonts and effects from TextStudio (including in Canva), a TextStudio Premium subscription is required: https://www.textstudio.com/premium

How do I edit PSD files?

To edit a PSD file, you can use Adobe Photoshop or the online application Photopea. We've written a tutorial on how to use Photopea to edit a PSD: https://blog.textstudio.com/how-do-i-edit-a-text-effect-with-photopea-and-textstudio/

I paid for a PREMIUM subscription, yet the additional features don't seem to be active!

There's always a delay between when you've paid and when your member account actually becomes PREMIUM. Usually, the verification process takes a few minutes. If after 30 minutes your member account still isn't PREMIUM, you can contact us via the link at the bottom of the page.

Can I use my own fonts?

Of course! When you are on the text editor page, you must click on the font selection area, it's just below the area where you write your text. Once the window for selecting a font is displayed, all you have to do is click on the "Import" button located at the top right. You can import fonts in TTF and OTF format.

What is the .textstudio format used for?

The .textstudio format is a project file that you can save and reopen later in the text editor (Classic Maker) to modify your creation.

What is the quality of texts with the PREMIUM option?

When you upload your texts with the "HIGH" option, the font size and therefore the rendering quality is high enough for most uses (YouTube thumbnails, mock-ups, Instagram posts, etc.). If you're looking for higher quality, the "MAX" option will give you a huge quality (around 1000px for each character).

Can I use TextStudio's fonts and text effects to create alpha sets or alpha frames for Canva?

No, the use of TextStudio fonts and text effects to create alpha sets or alpha frames for Canva is not permitted. Our resources are intended for use in final creations and not to generate individual elements that can be extracted and reused.

The website or text generator is not working properly!

We recommend that you use the Google Chrome browser when using TextStudio on a computer or Android device. For iPhone, iPad or Mac users, both the Safari and Google Chrome browsers should work correctly with TextStudio. If you still encounter problems, please contact us via the contact form.

Can you add a style of text that I created?

Creativity is also a collective story! If you've created a text style that isn't already on the site, send us its ".textstudio" file as an attachment to [email protected].

I'd like a particular style of text, can you help me?

Sure! Many of the texts on the site were suggested by users themselves! If you need a particular style of text, you can contact us via the contact page at the bottom of the page. We will do our best to replicate the style of text you need.

What are ABC styles and how do they differ from ordinary text styles?

ABC styles are a specialized category of text effects that work with a limited set of characters (typically A-Z and 0-9). Unlike our ordinary text styles, which support all characters, ABC styles are designed to work with specific glyphs only. ABC styles can be recognized by the ABC icon that accompanies them. Hover the mouse over this icon to see which characters are available. While this may seem restrictive, it allows us to create more detailed, higher-quality effects for each supported character.
