Cinematic film still of a Song-dynasty tea house by a river at dusk. A tea master in a plain grey robe and black cloth headwrap whisks tea into white foam in a black-glazed bowl; a celadon tea jar and a bamboo whisk sit on the low wooden table. By the open door hangs a vertical cloth banner with the Traditional Chinese characters 「清風茶肆」 and no other text. Warm lantern light inside, blue dusk outside, light rain.

How to get Chinese text right

  1. 1

    You can write the whole prompt in Chinese. Poems and idioms don't need translating.

  2. 2

    Put every character that must appear in 「」 or quotes, and say whether it runs top to bottom or left to right.

  3. 3

    Turn Add detail off for exact text. It rewrites the prompt in English and can change the characters.

  4. 4

    Short lines come out cleaner. Use 2K or 4K, and check every character before you publish, especially in seal script.

What testers found

  • An independent Chinese-language review rated H3 Image highly on Chinese poems, idioms and cultural metaphors written straight in Chinese, with no machine translation. It also lists weak spots: scenes with more than three interacting people, and hands, dense grids or tiny repeated textures at extreme angles.

    @Stellakjbk
  • A one-shot comparison ran H3 Image and five other models on the same Song-dynasty scene: an inspector stamping a seal that reads Lin'an, a Ru-ware bowl, sleet, and close-up hands. The author left the verdict to readers.
