Hobbyists discover how to insert custom fonts into AI-generated images
Hobbyists can now insert custom fonts into AI-generated images using the Flux model and LoRA technique, enabling accurate text rendering. Initial experiments include a "Y2K" font and one from Cyberpunk 2077.

Hobbyists have recently discovered a method to insert custom fonts into AI-generated images using the Flux AI image synthesis model. This development allows users to render accurate text in specific typefaces within their AI-generated scenes, a capability that previous models struggled with. The technique utilizes LoRA (low-rank adaptation), which enables users to augment AI models with custom-trained modules. The first successful experiments involved creating typeface LoRAs, with one user, Vadim Fedenko, training a bubbly "Y2K" style font and another user replicating a font from the video game Cyberpunk 2077. While the technology for rendering fonts has existed for decades, the ability to incorporate them into AI-generated images is a novel application. Although there are concerns about the environmental impact of generative AI and ethical issues regarding data usage, the community is actively exploring these new capabilities. As of now, only two custom typeface LoRAs have been created, but there are plans for more, indicating potential growth in this area of AI image synthesis.
