Your images are processed by your own browser. Nothing is uploaded to a server, so your photos stay private and the tool keeps working even on a slow connection.
How to use the Meme Generator tool
- Pick a layout: classic top and bottom text, a caption post, a motivational poster, or a two or four panel grid.
- Click the grey area (or drop or paste a picture) to add your photo. Plain colour layouts work without a photo.
- Type your text in the boxes on the right. Drag the text on the image to move it, pull the corners to resize or turn it.
- Add a speech bubble, an arrow or your own image, draw with the pen, or add space above or below for a caption.
- Click Generate meme, then download it as PNG or JPG or share it straight from your phone.

Frequently asked questions
Is this meme generator free?
Yes. You can make and download as many memes as you like, with no account and no sign-up.
Does it add a watermark?
A small printonnow.com mark is switched on by default so friends can find the tool. Untick it before you click Generate meme and your image is completely clean.
Why are there no famous meme pictures?
Most famous meme photos belong to photographers and TV studios. To keep your memes safe to post, the layouts here are blank and you add a photo you have the right to use.
Which font do memes use?
Classic memes use a heavy condensed font in white with a black outline. This tool uses Anton, a free font with the same look, and you can change the fill and outline colours.
Can I make a meme on my phone?
Yes. Open this page on your phone, tap the photo area to pick a picture from your gallery, type your text and use the Share button to send it to WhatsApp, Instagram or any app.
