EDITED!
Hi! Is there any way to create an image with photoshop so that it's nearly impossible FOR A COMPUTER to tell that there's text in the image. I'm not trying to hide text in the image code, I want to make sure no one can read the text that's overlayed on the image without looking at it...Thanks!
I want people to be able to see the text and read it, just not a computer.

Hi Patrick,
You can change the bleding mode of the text and play with the opacity setting of the text layer. Please check this more info: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/photoshop/using/blending-modes.html

Thanks for the answer!
I guess I wasn't clear though, I'll edit the top post.
Any PERSON should be able to look at it and see the text and read it. I want a computer or OCR not to be able to read it...
Thanks again!

Can you clarify the part about "I want to make sure no one can read the text ... on the image without looking at it"?
Does that mean that if they look at it they can read it and if they don't look at it they can't? Or something else?

Oh, never mind. I didn't read your subject line. OCR is easy to do in Acrobat, and you might want to test it there. Here are some ideas:
Convert to outlines first, then try one or more of these:
Be sure to try the OCR in Acrobat to confirm that it fails.
