LoGAN: Multilingual Font Localization with Generative Agents

LoGAN is a VLM-based agentic framework designed for few-shot multilingual font localization. It takes a handful of glyphs or logo letters and generates complete character sets across many languages, including CJK, by combining a glyph-level diffusion model, style finetuning, spacing/kerning transfer, and texture expansion. The method outperforms specialized font generators and state‑of‑the‑art image editors in glyph fidelity, style, texture, and kerning consistency on datasets covering more than 27 languages.

SmartFont: Dynamic Condition Allocation for Few-Shot Font Generation

Few-shot font generation simultaneously requires global structural completeness and fine-grained local style fidelity. Existing methods usually either rely on global content-style modeling, which is robust but imperfectly disentangled, or emphasize component/local modeling, which captures fine details but relies heavily on local priors and reference coverage.

GlyphAnchor: Enhancing Visual Text Rendering via Position-Anchored Glyph Priors

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.

TextAlign: Preference Alignment for Text Rendering with Hierarchical Rewards

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.

OnomatoBridge: Onomatopoeia Translation and Rendering Pipeline in Manga

OnomatoBridge is a filtering pipeline designed to translate and render onomatopoeia in manga from Japanese to English while preserving the original visual style. The method replaces Japanese onomatopoeia with stylized English text, addressing artifacts and style inconsistencies seen in prior approaches. Experiments on the Manga109 dataset show that OnomatoBridge improves English text correctness by 10–25 points and reduces residual Japanese text by 20–50% compared to baseline image editing models.
