Frequently Asked Questions

What text effects can I create?

Eight presets: Glow, Neon, Emboss, Engrave, Retro, 3D, Fire, and Outline. Each uses multiple shadow layers to create the effect. You can also build custom effects from scratch.

Can I use multiple shadow layers?

Yes. Add as many layers as you need. Complex effects like 3D and neon use multiple layers stacked together.

Can I change the preview text?

Yes. Type any text in the preview field, adjust font size, and change text and background colors to see exactly how the shadow looks with your content.
