I am trying to generate a logo with a desired text. It is not accepting it.

Correct answer Kartika Rawat

Hi e339816051nxw!

Sorry about that. Currently, Firefly has limitations in creating realistic body features in generated images. The quality of our models will improve with time, and generated content will continue to better follow prompts. Select the report icon to provide feedback about distorted facial or body features.

 

Let us know.

Thanks,

KR

I am trying to craft an image of the words "Providence Lyceum" etched in beach sand. The image is great but it mispells Providence Lyceum on every try. Not even close. Is there a way to ensure that I get the correct spelling?

Hi @micgibson 

Firefly hasn't been good at inserting words into images and so can give garbled text, words with incorrct spelling or just strange cahracters. It seems to be getting better. I just tried the prompt "birthday cake with words "Happy Birthday". The first result had mostly accurate images. Subsequent ones were good.


I tried with your prompt:  "Providence Lyceum" etched in beach sand.
Results were never accurate, second one below is close. 



Variations of the prompt did not get any better results. Your prompt is good in being simple. Inserting text/weords into an image is Firefly's weakness and your words are not simple enough for it (as compared to Happy Birthday).

it was showing some different name instead of "bhargavi"

Hello @hackunter,

Thank you for your message. I am sorry you are having this problem.

 

While it has gotten better, Firefly (and most other AI image generators) is generally not good at putting exact text from a prompt into an image. Sometimes it is perfect, but usually, it does not get it right.  The best solution is to use Adobe Express or Photoshop to add text in.  The more complicated the angle or perspective of the text, the more likely you will need Photoshop to get what you want.

If AI image generators are so smart, why do they struggle to write and count?

I am trying to add text to image. For example, I want to get an image of taxi with word "hello" written on it's door. The text in generated image is gibberish.

Generative AI models can't handle text very well and Firefly is no exception. It's a flaw that every model (still) possesses.

 

The best solution for now is to use e. g. Adobe Express or Photoshop to add your desired text in.

@Abraham_MotionGraphics and @Charles32925702e4ms 

 

AI generators including Adobe Firefly are not good with generating text. See the article posted by @droopydog500 on September 25 earlier in this thread for the reasons.

 

In the meanwhile, use Adobe Express for text.
