Quote post pictures with OpenAI node don't work

[aipreneur]

Dear community,

I am currently creating images for social media, specifically for over 500 quotes. The images should consist of a background image with the quote in the foreground. This works as intended with ChatGPT, but when I attempt to do the same with DALL E in OpenAI node in n8n, I encounter the typical errors that were also present in ChatGPT a few months ago. The quotes are written in German, but are translated into English in the image and the letters are also spelled incorrectly. I asked ChatGPT about this and ChatGPT says that there is still logic in ChatGPT itself that converts the prompt and creates multiple images and eliminates errors, so that in the end you get a good image with good font. DALL E does not do this on its own. Do you have any idea how I can replicate ChatGPT’s behaviour, i.e. so that the quote is displayed in German and with the correct letters?

Best regards!

Hello @aipreneur
I think what you’re experiencing is pretty normal with AI image models, They often struggle with rendering accurate text, especially in languages other than English, and even with strong prompting you can still get hallucinations or misspelled letters.

If your main goal is just to display quotes with clean typography, you might want to separate the steps:

• Use DALL·E (or any image model) to generate the background image.
• Then use another tool (like n8n’s built-in Image node) to overlay the text in the correct font and language.

Also, keep in mind that the higher the quality of the model you use, the better results you’ll usually get, though this often comes with higher costs.
