  4. Click OK.   The formatted text appears on the image.

  5. In the Tool Options, modify the Font, Font Size, the Bold, Italics and Underline effects, and alignment of the text. The settings from the Color Picker, Blend Mode, and Opacity also affect the text.

You can modify the text at anytime until you anchor the selection by clicking outside the marquee.
