you can use Canvas and drawText().

Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, height, Bitmap.Config.RGB_565);
Canvas c = new Canvas(bmp);
Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
c.drawText("Hello world!", xPos, yPos, paint);
bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, new FileOutputStream(destFilePath);

You can also set the font and text-size via the Paint-object. See How to set font and Paint.setTextSize().
