$size = $_REQUEST ['textSize'];
$x = $_REQUEST ['xPosition'];

You know that text and image are separate data type. If you add a text in a image, the text will not be text anymore. it will be added as image too.

You can save created image directly into database, or for better information saving, you can save image with combined text in one column, string in one column and original image in another column.

johny : tq for replying my question

i have add this code inside the code above

Header ("Content-Disposition:attachment;filename='apple_image'");

so now the image and the text added had been auto save in the user computer without preview the image first.

actually, i would like to save the image in my database too.. but still trying to solve that problem..
