Edit text

I added text to a photo in paint.net and then saved the photo back to my pictures folder. I then realized that there was an error in the text. I reopened the photo in paint.net but could not find any way to edited the text. What should I do to correct the error?

Once you finalize text it becomes part of the image. Therefore, there is no easy way to edit it later.

The best way to handle this type of thing in the future it to always put text on its own layer and save a copy of the PDN file before you flatten the image.

As for your problem now, I suggest going back to the original image and start again. If that's not possible, you'll probably need to remove the text using the clone/stamp tool before putting a new layer of text on the image.
