The easiest way to do this would be to make a selection using your text layer s alpha channel Layer Transparency Alpha to Selection and then paint along that selection with the Stroke Selection operation Edit Stroke Selection . A problem arises however if these are the only two steps you use. For some fonts there s not a lot of space around your text in its text layer so when you stroke the selection it s likely that you ll get something that looks like the text in Figure 8-3. Notice how the outer portion of the outline is cropped off by the boundaries of the text layer. FIGURE 8-3 When you create an outline on some text layers your outline may be constrained by the boundaries of your layer. You could get around this by creating a new transparent layer Shift Ctrl N and adding the stroke there but if you ever decide to edit that text you would have to delete and replace that layer. However as explained in Chapter 10 text layers in GIMP are still editable even if you paint on them or perform other operations on them. Of course editing removes all of those additional operations but the benefit is that you don t end up with superfluous layers that you have to delete. So to resolve that cropped outline problem you need to increase the size of the text layer to accommodate the extra space that the outline requires You could do this manually with the dialog that appears when you run Layer Layer Boundary Size but that s a bit slow and it involves some guesswork on your part to make sure you create enough space. A faster way is to run Layer Layer to Image Size. As long as your text isn t close to the edge of your canvas this should quickly give you enough space to get a non-cropped outline as shown in Figure 8-4. FIGURE 8-4 Text without the cropping problems shown in Figure 8-3 This Is text Cropping and Guillotine The previous section showed how the Image and Layer menus offer you operations to .
