If not, what appears to be sized 12 font in one image, may actually be too big or too small in the other image.

Hi there H,
My RGB & IR images are all at the same focal length at 640 x 480 pixels. Just had a look in Photoshop and that is saying that the resolution of my RGB is 72 pixels/inch while the resolution of my IR is 300 pixels/inch, I do not understand how that can be.
I think it might be a lot less messing about to create a standard band with the image detail in that can be inserted across the bottom of the image.

My method is to take a copy of the area where I want the text and paste it into an old DOS/Windows 3.11 program called Picture Publisher, that came with an old scanner, as a new image. The text insertion tool in this program is the easiest I have found. Has a hundred or so fonts with virtually unlimited sizes, angles etc..
When I am happy with the result I copy it (Paste) back into photoshop then save in whatever format required.
I have attached a sample of what is possible. The first is a page scan (repaired) of a manual I have. The second is the same picture with different text added to synthesize a manual cover I was missing.

Thanks Barry, I think I might have a go with your suggestion. When I have an imaging session it is generally 4 or 5 hours so obviously I capture a lot of data. The method I currently use to annotate the images really does take a lot of time at the stage when I am generally nearly asleep on my feet, (well backside).
