Abstract
Diffusion models have recently achieved remarkable success in high-fidelity image synthesis, yet their application to visual text generation and editing remains relatively underexplored. Unlike general image generation, visual text tasks demand precise structural regularity and legibility, which may pose additional challenges for small-scale text and non-Latin scripts such as Chinese. Existing UNet-based models often struggle to produce clear and coherent text, while DiT-based models, though more expressive, are typically limited to a single task, which may lead to redundant training pipelines, inconsistent visual styles, and reduced cross-task generalization. To address these challenges, we propose InnoText, a unified DiT-based framework capable of performing both text generation and editing within a single model. We introduce a Font Size-Aware Modulation (FSAM) module to enhance representations across font scales, a Small-Character Aware Augmentation strategy to improve fine-grained fidelity, and a Task-Specific Region Weighted Loss for adaptive optimization. To support training and evaluation, we also construct a high-quality bilingual (English-Chinese) visual text dataset covering diverse fonts, sizes, and backgrounds. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves superior generation accuracy and editing quality, producing visually appealing and realistic text images.
This work proposes Visual In-context Editing, a new paradigm elevating video editing from textual instructions to multi-modal visual guidance encompassing single image, image pair, and video pair, and curates VicEdit-400K, the first large-scale dataset for visual in-context video editing.

Swift-Image achieves leading aggregate performance among evaluated open-source models with only 6B parameters and 243K GPU training hours; the compressed 3B model incurs nearly no loss, while few-step distillation further improves aggregate editing performance with substantially fewer sampling steps.

The results show that careful tokenizer--backbone--system co-design can deliver strong high-resolution generation and editing within an efficient 4B model family.
Text-rich visual inputs require models that can read, retrieve, and compress language directly in pixel space, yet existing pixel-text encoders struggle with fixed resolution pretraining, visual shortcut learning, weak visual grounding, and multilingual visual text understanding. In this work, we investigate the fundamental design principles required for robust visual text representation learning. Through systematic controlled ablations, we identify four critical components: variable image resolutions and rendered font sizes provide spatial proxies for high-resolution document generalization; natural image-text pairs are indispensable for grounding and prevent text-only collapse; layout-aware rendering helps prevent pixel-level shortcuts; and a two-stage multilingual curriculum enables effective cross-lingual alignment. By integrating these principles into a scalable training recipe, we train Pixel Linguist II, a native-resolution vision encoder trained with on-the-fly rendering, unified contrastive grounding, and a multilingual curriculum over 280M training examples. Pixel Linguist II sets new state-of-the-art results on English, cross-lingual, and multilingual Visual STS and ViDoRe, while also enabling better MLLM downstream evaluation. Notably, Pixel Linguist II remains robust under 80\% visual token compression, showing great promise for optical context compression.

Text editing in product posters entails inserting new text or replacing existing text while preserving product appearance, background content, and global composition. Despite recent progress in instruction-based image editing, general-purpose models remain unreliable in this setting: they often omit or incorrectly render the target text, place it over salient products or pre-existing content, and produce structurally distorted or visually inconsistent glyphs. We introduce \textbf{TextRefine}, a task-aligned post-training framework that combines supervised fine-tuning with operation-specific reward optimization to address these complementary failure modes. For text insertion, our text-span-level reward jointly assesses semantic fidelity and target-span coverage, penalizes spatial conflicts with products and existing text, and employs a gated structural constraint to preserve non-text regions. For text replacement, our glyph-level reward leverages the connectionist temporal classification (CTC) posterior of the target character to provide graded supervision for fine-grained defects, including missing strokes, structural deformations, and confusion among visually similar characters. We further introduce \textbf{OpenTextEdit}, a dataset comprising 100K images for text editing in product posters, with multi-text layouts, detailed text attributes, product masks, and challenging low-frequency characters. Extensive experiments on both insertion and replacement demonstrate that TextRefine consistently outperforms the evaluated image editing baselines in textual fidelity, placement reliability, and glyph quality while better preserving source-image content.
