How to Translate a Poster to Chinese and Audit Every Line Break

#ai #design #webdev #tutorial

A real English poster input beside its Simplified Chinese result

An image translator must preserve two systems at once: meaning and design. A fluent sentence is not enough if the headline wraps into the illustration or a date changes position.

The current Voor AI Image Translator uses GPT Image 2 for the inspected route. Choose a scenario, target language, prompt, image size, settings, and visibility. Our fixture used Poster / ad, Simplified Chinese, 4:3, and Public · watermarked. The live quote was 45 credits, with three welcome credits and a 42-credit gap. We loaded the public starter input but did not submit Generate.

Approve the transcript first

Do not ask the model to invent marketing copy. Supply exact replacements and mark protected elements:

{
  "target": "Simplified Chinese",
  "replace": {
    "TOKYO AFTER DARK": "东京夜游",
    "NIGHT MARKET · 7 PM": "夜市 · 晚上7点"
  },
  "lock": ["illustration", "border", "palette", "texture", "hierarchy"]
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

A fluent reviewer should approve the destination copy, punctuation, numerals, and regional usage before image generation.

Name every protected layer

The prompt should say which copy changes and which pixels do not. Protect illustration, moon, lanterns, buildings, colors, border, texture, crop, and hierarchy. Also name brand marks, legal lines, prices, or route symbols that must remain unchanged.

The configured translator beside source and target type details

Compare regions, not thumbnails

At 100 percent, compare headline bounds, baseline, line breaks, event-time line, border, and important illustration edges. The real input/result pair shows how a two-line English block becomes a shorter Chinese headline without rebuilding the poster scene. Check every character; visual similarity is not language accuracy.

For each text region, record source transcript, approved translation, position, size, and pass/fail. If regulated copy or a barcode changes, do not patch it with another prompt. Rebuild it from the approved design source.

Recheck the live contract

GPT Image 2, 4:3, Public · watermarked, and 45 credits describe this inspected setup only. A different model, size, or visibility can change the quote. The page exposes Generate and the estimate together so you can stop before spending credits.

The release gate is transcript approved, protected layers listed, regional copy verified, pixels inspected, and source/result archived. Run the same region audit from the exact translator page.
