  • Put the text in a dummy canvas using `.create_text` and then save the contents of the canvas as an image. Also how are you going to read the image? Generally it's a bad idea to convert text => image, unless you want to print out the text. – TheLizzard Sep 04 '21 at 10:05

  • Why save it as a picture to make it read-only? why not just change the file permission to make the text file read-only? – Art Sep 04 '21 at 11:27

I think this is help you

from PIL import Image, ImageDraw
 
img = Image.new('RGB', (100, 30))
 
d = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
d.text((10,10), "Hello", fill=(255,255,0))
 
img.save('text.png')

This project use Pillow.First we create a new image.Then we add text to this image and change fill for this text.And Finally we save this image.

    What if OP doesn't know the amount of text that needs to be saved? Right now you create an image 100x30 but sometimes that might not be enough. Also please add an explanation to how your code works. It will be more likely to help OP. – TheLizzard Sep 04 '21 at 11:39
