Paint.NET是目前可用的最好的图像编辑程序之一，最重要的是，它是免费的。然而，尽管它很棒，这个免费程序并没有提供给文本添加阴影效果的选项。^{(add drop shadow effects)}虽然该选项不存在，但可以使用插件添加。您可以使用Paint.NET 效果^{(Paint.NET Effects)} 或投影^{(Drop shadow)}插件。下载后，解压zip文件到自己的文件夹，然后点击安装文件。在后一种情况下，您只需移动提取的文件夹。

在 Paint.NET 中添加投影效果

1] 使用 Paint.NET 效果插件

启动Paint.NET并将鼠标光标移至“效果”选项卡。向下滚动^(Scroll)到“对象”，从那里，用户将看到“投影”选项。暂时不要点击它，因为首先，我们需要创建一个图像来添加我们的文本。

首先，单击图层^(Layers)选项卡，然后将鼠标光标移动到添加新图层^{(Add New Layer)}，然后单击。完成后，打开工具^(Tools)菜单并单击文本^(Text)以在图像上键入单词。这些词可以是任何东西，但我们选择使用我们网站的名称。

接下来，单击“效果”、“对象^(Objects)” ，然后单击“投影”^{(Drop Shadow)}以开始转换放置在图像上的所选单词的过程。到目前为止，人们应该能够意识到这项任务是多么容易，尽管它不如使用Photoshop或GIMP等高级图像编辑程序强大。

现在，在我们开始放置阴影之前，首先图像编辑器必须为阴影选择一种颜色。有一个名为Shadow Color的选项，因此只需从那里选择最合适的颜色，然后移至Offsets。

偏移 X^{(Offset X)}将阴影向左和向右移动，而偏移 Y^{(Offset Y)}则向上和向下移动阴影。用户可以使用加宽半径加宽阴影，并使用^{(Widening Radius)}阴影不透明度^{(Shadow Opacity)}更改不透明度。

整个事情很简单，但正如我们之前所说，与Photoshop^(Photoshop)相比，它并不先进。对于基本的投影工作，Paint.NET Effect插件是任何业余图像编辑器的必备工具。它完全按照它所说的去做，没有任何形式的错误。

要获取该插件，请访问 Paint.NET Effects主页^{(home page)(home page)}并按下“立即下载^(Download)”按钮。请记住^(Bear)，要使其正常工作，用户需要下载 Microsoft 的.NET Framework 2.0或 3.5。

2]使用投影插件

转到Softpedia.com并下载，提取其内容以安装 Paimt.net 的投影^{(Drop Shadow)}插件。

将提取的投影 ^{(Drop Shadow )}文件夹移动到C:\Program Files\paint.net\Effects文件夹。

现在，打开Paint.net。

转到菜单栏上的图层。^(Layers)

在Layers的下拉列表中选择Add New Layer。

单击左侧的文本工具，然后在图形编辑区域中键入文本。^(Text)

然后转到菜单栏上的效果。^(Effects)

在效果^(Effects)下拉列表中，将光标悬停在对象^(Object)上，然后单击投影^{(Drop Shadow)}。

将出现一个投影^{(Drop Shadow)}对话框。

在对话框中，您可以自定义投影^{(Drop Shadow)}设置。

完成后，单击确定^(Ok)。

您将在编辑区域中看到带有阴影效果的文本。

How to create and add Drop Shadow effect to an image in Paint.NET

Paint.NET is one of the best image editing programs available right now and best of all, it is free. However, despite its awesome, this free program doesn’t come with the option to add drop shadow effects to text. While the option is not there, it can be added with a plugin. You can use Paint.NET Effects or Drop shadow plugin. After downloading, extract the zip file to its own folder, and then click on the install file. In the latter case, you need to just move the extracted folder.

Add Drop Shadow effect in Paint.NET

1] Using Paint.NET Effects plugin

Launch Paint.NET and bring the mouse cursor to the “Effects” tab. Scroll down to “Objects” and from there, users will see the option that says “Drop Shadow.” Don’t click on it just yet, because first, we need to create an image to add our text to.

To get started, click on the Layers tab, and then move the mouse cursor to Add New Layer, and click. After this is done, open the Tools menu and click on Text to type words on the image. These words can be anything, but we’ve chosen to go with the name of our website.

Next, click Effects, Objects, and then Drop Shadow to begin the process of transforming the chosen words placed on the image. So far, one should be able to realize how easy this task is though it is not as powerful as using advanced image editing programs such as Photoshop or GIMP.

Now, before we begin to drop the shadow, first the image editor must choose a color for the shadow. There’s an option called Shadow Color, so from there just choose the most fitting color and then move to the Offsets.

Offset X moves the shadow to the left and right while Offset Y moves the shadow up and down. Users can widen the shadow with the Widening Radius, and change the opacity using Shadow Opacity.

The whole thing is straightforward, but as we said before, it is not as advanced when compared to Photoshop. For basic drop shadow work, the Paint.NET Effect plug-in is a must have for any amateur image editor. It does exactly what it says it will do without any form of faults.

To get a hold of the plug-in, visit the Paint.NET Effects home page and press the button that says Download now. Bear in mind that for this to work, users will be required to download Microsoft’s .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.5.

2] Using Drop Shadow plugin

Go to Softpedia.com and download, extract its contents to install the Drop Shadow plugin for Paimt.net.

Move the extracted Drop Shadow folder to C:\Program Files\paint.net\Effects folder.

Now, open Paint.net.

Go to Layers on the menu bar.

In the Layers, drop-down list select Add New Layer.

Click the Text tool on the left and type a text in the graphic edit area.

Then go to Effects on the menu bar.

In the Effects drop-down list, hover the cursor over Object and click Drop Shadow.

A Drop Shadow dialog box will appear.

Inside the dialog box, you can customize your Drop Shadow settings.

Once you are done, click Ok.

You will see a text with a drop shadow effect in the editing area.
