Simple way to create png image with an input text.

First you need to have the PIL python module and import this.

from PIL import Image
from PIL import ImageDraw
from PIL import ImageFont
from PIL import ImageFilter

Next will be this function.Basically will make and return one RGBA image data type.

def make_img(image, textColor, backgroundColor):
  img = image.convert("RGBA")
  img.putdata([textColor if value == 0 else backgroundColor 
                   for value in image.getdata()])
  return img

The next step is to set the text , font and the new image.

I use Arggotsc.ttf. You can use any TrueType font.

text = " Inca un script in python! "
font = ImageFont.truetype('Arggotsc.ttf', 55)
image = Image.new("1", font.getsize(text), '#FFF')

Now we can draw, add text, resize, bur the text and finally save the image.

draw = ImageDraw.Draw(image)
draw.text((0, 0), text, font=font)
image = image.resize([i for i in image.size], Image.NEAREST)
imgText = make_img(image, (200, 200, 200), (0, 0, 0, 0))
blur_img = make_img(image, (0, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0, 0))
for i in range(3): 
  blur_img = blur_img.filter(ImageFilter.BLUR)
blur_img.paste(imgText, (0, 0), imgText)
blur_img.save("text-img.png")

The result is:
