01
Preserve the type style
Ask FireRed to retain letter weight, color, texture, shadows, and decorative treatment while changing the message.
FireRed Image Edit 1.1 text workflow
Edit Text in Images with AI
Replace, rewrite, or translate words inside a photo while keeping the surrounding design intact. FireRed Image Edit 1.1 follows natural-language instructions and preserves visual context.
Natural-language editing Typography-aware results Free online workflow
A focused text-editing workflow
Change the words, not the whole design
Traditional photo editors make text replacement a manual reconstruction task. FireRed treats the words, styling, and surrounding image as one editing instruction.
02
Respect the scene
Perspective, lighting, occlusion, and background context stay part of the edit instead of becoming a flat overlay.
03
Handle bilingual text
Use English or Chinese instructions and request translation or replacement inside the same visual composition.
Real FireRed text-style examples
The official FireRed showcase demonstrates stylized text reference across posters, outdoor scenes, and illustrated compositions.
Poster copy
Replace a headline while keeping the original visual hierarchy and decorative lettering.
Text inside photography
Edit words that follow real-world perspective, surface texture, and scene lighting.
Stylized lettering
Reference handwritten, illustrated, or dimensional type without rebuilding the artwork from scratch.
How to edit text in an image with AI
A precise instruction is usually more useful than a long prompt. State what must change and what must remain fixed.
1
Upload the source image
Choose the clearest available version. Higher-resolution letters give the model more information about font shape and texture.
2
Name the exact replacement
Quote the old and new text, then specify invariants such as font, color, alignment, shadows, and perspective.
3
Generate, inspect, and refine
Check spelling and character shapes at full size. If needed, repeat with a narrower instruction that changes only the text.
Where AI text editing saves time
Use this workflow when the text is visually integrated into an image and a simple overlay would look artificial.
Posters and campaign graphics
Update dates, offers, event names, and calls to action without recreating the original layout.
Product packaging mockups
Test alternative names or labels while keeping material, print texture, and studio lighting consistent.
Localized creative assets
Translate signs or headlines for another market while preserving the surrounding visual system.
Prompt recipes for cleaner text replacement
Start with one of these structures, then replace the quoted words and the visual constraints with details from your image.
Exact replacement
“Replace the text 'OPEN DAILY' with 'OPEN LATE'. Change only the words; preserve the font, size, color, spacing, and perspective.”
Translate in place
“Translate the headline into English and render it in the same position, handwritten style, lighting, and material texture.”
Correct a typo
“Correct the misspelled word on the sign. Keep every other letter, object, shadow, reflection, and background detail unchanged.”
Quality checks before you publish
AI text can look convincing at a glance but still contain small character or spacing errors. Review the result like a production asset.
Read every character
Zoom in and verify spelling, punctuation, repeated letters, and language-specific glyphs.
Compare alignment
Check baselines, margins, kerning, and line breaks against the source composition.
Inspect edges and lighting
Look for halos, mismatched shadows, or flat text that no longer follows the surface.
Why use FireRed Image Edit 1.1
FireRed 1.1 extends the open-source model with improved stylized text reference, portrait consistency, and multi-element editing.
Purpose-built editing
The model changes an existing image from an instruction instead of generating an unrelated composition from scratch.
Open-source references
Model weights, code, a technical report, and official examples are available from FireRedTeam.

AI image text editor FAQ
Answers to the practical questions people ask before replacing text inside a photo.
Can AI replace text already embedded in a photo?
Yes. FireRed Image Edit uses the image and your instruction together, so it can replace visible words while reconstructing the surrounding pixels.
Will it preserve the original font?
Ask explicitly to preserve typeface, weight, size, color, texture, and spacing. Stylized text reference is a stated capability of FireRed Image Edit 1.1.
Can I edit curved or perspective text?
You can request it, but inspect the result closely. Clear source letters and a prompt that mentions perspective improve the chance of a coherent edit.
Can FireRed translate text inside an image?
Yes. State the target language and ask the model to keep the original placement and visual style.
How do I correct only one typo?
Quote the incorrect and corrected words, then add 'change only this word' and list the parts of the image that must remain unchanged.
What image formats can I upload?
The hosted editor accepts common web image formats such as JPEG, PNG, and WebP.
Does text editing work on posters and packaging?
Those are strong use cases because the text is part of a designed surface. Review brand, legal, and packaging details before publishing.
How can I improve small text results?
Start with a higher-resolution crop, make one replacement at a time, and specify the exact text and style constraints.
Can it preserve shadows and reflections?
Include those invariants in the prompt. The model uses scene context, but production results still need visual inspection.
Is FireRed Image Edit 1.1 open source?
Yes. FireRedTeam publishes the code and model resources through GitHub, Hugging Face, and ModelScope.
Can I use generated edits commercially?
Review the current model and hosted-service license terms for your use case, and confirm that you own rights to the source image and text.
Where should I start?
Enter one precise text replacement above, open the editor, upload your image, and compare the result against the original at full size.
Replace image text without rebuilding the artwork
Write the exact change, carry the prompt into FireRed Image Edit 1.1, and review the result at production size.
One focused instruction
Tell the model what changes and what stays fixed.
Visual context retained
Keep layout, lighting, and perspective in the editing request.
Refine without starting over
Narrow the next prompt to the remaining text issue.
