   canvas.drawBitmap(b,10,10,null);

canvas,drawText("hello this is my image",10,10,null);

   }

Answer 1

@sachit. As you know in a real life, the Canvas is only a brush, that you can use to draw the on the paper. Here the paper is your image itself.

So don’t worry. Just send the Bitmap b, which is now the image with your text.

And for sending you can convert the b to bytearray
like

ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            b.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, stream);
        ByteArray byteArray = stream.toByteArray();

Now you can send the byteArray to another activity..
