Drawing NSString to UIImage

Question

I have a NSString object. I want to write it to existing UIImage object. UIImage object already has some image associate with it. I want to write string to same image. How do i

Answer 1

You would draw (composite) both the image and the string into a graphics context, and then grab the resulting UIImage.

To draw the image use renderInContext. To draw the text use CGContextShowTextAtPoint. To get the resulting image

UIImage *compositeImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
