Yeah i am thinking editing .eps will be out of the question.

I am leaning more now towards something to edit just .jpgs. I can convert the .eps's over to .jpg myself, so i am trying to find something to add text to a .jpg, with no success.

I have found nothing searching for java or php solutions so far. The link earlier offers a solution written in JVM, but it is my understanding that JVM is going away shortly, so that will not help in a long term solution
