Text Rendering & Infographics

The skill Copy

Универсальные стили, layout-типы, примеры. Применимо к обеим моделям, но детали рендера расходятся:

- **Nano Banana:** SOTA по 100+ языкам, multi-language в одном кадре, можно называть конкретные шрифты («Century Gothic 12px», «Brush Script»). См. [nano-banana.md](nano-banana.md).
- **GPT Image 2:** EXACT TEXT в `"..."` или ALL CAPS, добавляй «no extra words / no duplicate text», для мелкого текста — `quality: high`. См. [gpt-image.md](gpt-image.md).

```

## Text-First Hack

For complex text in images, generate text FIRST, then ask for the image:
1. Ask the model to write/refine the text content
2. Then ask for an image with that exact text

This produces sharper, more accurate typography than cramming everything in one prompt.

## Font Control

Describe typography style or name the font directly:
- "Bold, white, sans-serif font"
- "Century Gothic 12px font"
- "Flowing, elegant Brush Script"
- "Heavy, blocky Impact font"
- "Thin, minimalist Century Gothic"

## Multilingual / Localization

Supports 10+ languages. Two approaches:

**Direct:** Write prompt in target language, text renders in that language.

**Translate:** Write prompt in one language, specify target:
```
Create this product ad. Render all text in Korean.
```

**Multi-language in one image:**
```
Line 1: "GLOW" in Brush Script
Line 2: "10% OFF" in Impact font
Line 3: "Your First Order" in Century Gothic
Then translate all text into Korean and Arabic.
```

## Tips

**Provide your own content:**
- Paste article text, video transcript, your notes
- More accurate than relying only on search

**Sketch-to-Image:**
- Draw messy layout sketch on paper
- Upload with prompt: "Use layout from attached image"

**Iterative editing:**
- "Leave everything else exactly the same, but change [X]"
- Annotate downloaded image, upload back as reference
