Unicode Image Maker / Re: no text in the image

I have only tried to save text as image. The problem is that, no matter what text I type, irrespective of the font type, the image file appears 'white' with no text on it, i.e., it is blank.

I use Norton Antivirus, which I turned off. Still, I could not save any text as image.

It occured to me that I could use the Windows7 'Snipping Tool' to capture the text from the the screen of the "Unicode Image Maker". I was able to to save the image. However, I could use the 'Snipping Tool' with a Word Document.

Unicode Image Maker / Re: no text in the image

I tried what you recommended, but still no image. I changed the background and paragraph colour to red, the text colour was still black. I had already tried saving the text as an .jpg or .bmp image, with no results. I thought the red background might apper on the image vewer (I use the standard Window image veiwer), but it did not. Incidentally, I have not yet used the presentation software. I am at the stage of creating the text images.

Thank you,
Sonia

Unicode Image Maker / Re: no text in the image

I installed the programme on 26 March. It appears to be the most recent version. The operating system on my laptop is Windows7 Professional.

I need to prepare word stimuli for an experiment. The language is Bulgarian, which uses the Cyrillic alphabet. The presentation software E-Prime can handle the unicode symbols for the Cyrillic script, however it misplaces the 'stress accent' over vowels. The stress accent is an additional symbol.

I tried using 'Unicode Image Maker' to create image bitmaps of text (individual words with a stress accent on one vowel). I can successfully type the word in black colour on a white background. However, when I try to save the word image in a file, I can only save a white background image, without any word on it. This occurs irrespective of whether the text in written in Cyrillic or English script.

I am happy to make a donation towards the project but I have to be able to use the software first.


Many thanks,
Sonia
