TextAlign is a post‑training preference‑alignment framework that improves text rendering in large text‑to‑image generative models without changing the generator architecture. It uses a hierarchical vision‑language model to reward global, word, and glyph‑level accuracy, converting binary defect judgments into a scalar preference signal that can be optimized with GRPO or DPO. Experiments on FLUX.1‑dev and Z‑Image‑Turbo demonstrate higher OCR‑based text accuracy while preserving overall generation quality, outperforming several foundation and text‑rendering baselines.

The paper introduces TextDART, a defect-aware reward model that evaluates individual text regions for semantic correctness and glyph quality, and SCANNER, a method that uses these regional judgments to provide spatially differentiated policy feedback. This approach addresses limitations of previous reinforcement learning methods that overlook glyph defects and obscure regional quality. Experiments on existing benchmarks and the new PolyText-Bench show state‑of‑the‑art performance in text accuracy and glyph fidelity.
arXiv:2606. 17979v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing RL post-training methods for text-to-image generation usually convert the final-image reward into a single scalar advantage and apply it with the same strength to the entire generative trajectory.
GlyphAnchor is a new method that improves visual text rendering in image generation and editing models by adding lightweight glyph patch conditions anchored to the target image’s positional encoding. The approach is trained with staged supervised finetuning and text-aware post‑training, and it works with both text‑to‑image and image‑editing diffusion transformers. Experiments on various backbones and the newly introduced InfoTextBench benchmark show that GlyphAnchor consistently enhances text fidelity while maintaining overall image quality, especially for long, complex, or densely arranged text and rare characters.

VTR-Bench is a new benchmark designed to evaluate how well video generation models render text within scenes. It includes 300 prompts across five real-world scenarios such as advertisements and scientific videos, and uses an automated pipeline with human alignment to assess text fidelity and scene/motion requirements. Experiments on 11 state‑of‑the‑art models show that even the best performer has a word error rate of 0.250, underscoring widespread challenges in visual text rendering.
Rendering accurate Chinese text remains challenging for text-to-image models. Existing OCR-based reinforcement-learning rewards compare decoded transcripts with target strings. Such rewards overlook t...

LensVLM is an inference framework and post‑training recipe that lets Vision‑Language Models (VLMs) process compressed images of text by selectively expanding only the relevant parts back to full resolution. Using Qwen3.5‑9B‑Base, LensVLM achieves accuracy comparable to full‑text models at 4.3× compression and outperforms other compression baselines up to 10.1× across seven text QA benchmarks, while also improving performance on multimodal document and code tasks as compression increases.
