📌 Why this matters
Adding text directly over images transforms static visuals into dynamic communication tools. You can create professional-looking infographics, annotate screenshots with explanations, highlight specific areas in photos, or build engaging presentations without needing separate design software. This technique also ensures your text stays perfectly positioned relative to the image when you resize or move elements around your slide. Instead of cluttering your layout with separate text blocks, you maintain clean visual hierarchy while delivering context exactly where viewers need it most.
