Now if i just try to add a small Rectangle[], the Text[] disappear.

Graphics[{ Rectangle[{18, 0}, {20, 2}], Text[ Style["Jean", 14, Bold, "Helvetica", Black, TextAlignment -> Right],{1, 1}], Text[ Style["Claude", 10, "Helvetica", Bold, Black, TextAlignment -> Right], {19, .8}]}, PlotRange -> {{0, 21}, {0, 2}}, ImageSize -> 300, Method -> {"ShrinkWrap" -> True}, ImagePadding -> 2, ImageMargins -> 0]

enter image description here

If you take out Method -> {"ShrinkWrap" -> True} it works as I think you expect.

  • $\begingroup$ +1 for pointing this out. I realized after I posted my answer that I didn't know why the leftmost part of the image was disappearing. Thanks! $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 16, 2012 at 5:40
  • $\begingroup$ @FJRA,Thank You it works, can you explain ? I use the "ShrinkWrap" to export with any borders. In this case I would like the text on a transparent BackGround. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 16, 2012 at 5:43

    $\begingroup$ To export with a transparent background you can add the Background -> None option: Export["file.png", g, Background -> None] $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 16, 2012 at 6:18

The text doesn't disappear, you're just not seeing it. Try the following mod to your code:

Graphics[{Red, Rectangle[{18, 0}, {20, 2}], Text[Style["Jean", 14, Red, Bold, "Helvetica", Black, TextAlignment -> Right], {1, 1}], Text[Style["Claude", 10, "Helvetica", Bold, Black, TextAlignment -> Right], {19, .8}]}, PlotRange -> {{0, 21}, {0, 2}}, Frame -> Automatic, ImageSize->Large, ImageSize -> 300, Method -> {"ShrinkWrap" -> True}, ImagePadding -> 2, ImageMargins -> 0]

Here's what you'll see:

So Claude is just hidden by your black rectangle. Jean is far to the left of your rectangle.

  • $\begingroup$ As FJRA suggested, you should delete Method ->{"ShrinkWrap" -> True} $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 16, 2012 at 5:43
