Text Texture Generator Blender Add-on

A reliable text-to-texture workflow that lives entirely inside Blender 4.0+.

Why Artists Keep It Installed

  • Generate clean text textures without leaving Blender or juggling external editors.
  • Shape typography fast: multi-line copy, prepend/append text blocks, horizontal or vertical layouts, and margin controls.
  • Place designs precisely using a 9-point anchor grid, manual percentage/pixel coordinates, offsets, and optional canvas constraints.
  • Work with any font in your library: automatic system font discovery plus drag-in custom .ttf/.otf support.
  • Pick transparent or solid backgrounds with full RGBA control and iterate using the built-in preview window.
  • One click to create the final image every texture is packed into the .blend file and ready for node setups.

Core Workflow

  1. Enter your copy and choose fonts.
  2. Dial in placement, dimensions, and colors.
  3. Hit Preview to check the result, then Generate to store the texture in bpy.data.images.

Editions

Free Edition (included)

  • Full text-to-texture pipeline at any resolution your hardware can handle.
  • Prepend/append text blocks with horizontal or vertical layout modes.
  • Anchor presets, manual coordinates (percent or pixels), offsets, and canvas constraints.
  • RGBA text color, transparent or solid backgrounds, plus configurable preview backgrounds.
  • System font browser and custom font loading.
  • Preview generator that opens a Blender Image Editor window for instant feedback.

Pro Edition (BlenderMarket, Superhive & Gumroad)

Everything in the Free Edition, plus:

  • Composition components. Stack any number of text or image overlays, sequence them before/after the main copy, or position them absolutely with independent scale, rotation, spacing, and Z-order. SVG overlays rasterize automatically (via CairoSVG) so they stay pin-sharp.
  • Automatic normal maps. Turn the alpha channel into a normal map with adjustable strength, blur radius, and inversion for emboss/deboss looks.
  • Shader builder. Create Principled BSDF, Emission, or Transparent materials complete with normal-map hookups, light-path controls (disable shadows, reflections, or backfaces), and optional auto-assignment to the active object.
  • Preset ecosystem. Save styles either with the current .blend or in Blenders config folder, refresh them in one click, and import/export JSON bundles for backups or team sharing.
  • Adaptive text fitting. Let the addon resize fonts within a range to keep layouts within your chosen canvas margins.

Built For These Pipelines

  • Product visualization that needs labels, packaging copy, or compliance text.
  • Motion design titles and lower-thirds created straight inside 3D scenes.
  • Game-ready signage, decals, and UI panels that need crisp alpha textures.
