OK, I thought about this the whole time I was taking my
shower and I've come up with what I think is a brilliant
solution.

PS_Start, File='example_wo_tvrd.ps'
TVImage, LoadData(7), /KEEP
XYOUTS, 0.5, 0.5, /NORMAL, 'This is some text', FONT=0, CHARSIZE=2.0
PS_END, /TIFF

You will find the file "example_wo_tvrd.tif" in your
current directory. It will have text written on the
image!

Cheers,

David

P.S. Of course, I *assume* you have ImageMagick installed
properly.
