Translate Text in Images Without Redesigning

4 min read ·

Localizing a design usually means reopening the source file and rebuilding every text layer per language. AI image localization does it directly on the finished image: it detects the text, translates it and re-renders it in the same style.

What works best

Ads, banners, social posts, packaging mock-ups and infographics with clear, readable text give the best results. Very small text, heavy textures behind letters, and handwritten lettering are harder and may need a second pass.

Plan for text length

Translations are often longer than English. Leave some breathing room around headlines in the original design so longer languages still fit without shrinking the type too far.

Always review before publishing

Have a native speaker check each version, especially for product claims, prices and legal text. Keep brand names and trademarks unchanged by mentioning them in the instructions.

In PixelMagic, Localize lets you pick several languages at once and returns one image per language with the same layout.
