You change the words by describing them. In Venice Studio, upload the picture, leave the default model or select another, and explain which text to change and what it should say. You can give that same explanation in Agentic Chat. Studio also brings image, video, and audio into one workspace. The Studio post shows how that workspace is laid out.
Tl;dr
- Open Venice Studio and upload the image, or start in Agentic Chat.
- Leave the default model, or select another image model.
- In the prompt, quote the old words, say where they sit, and quote the new words.
- Say what must stay unchanged.
- To remove a line, name that line and describe what should fill the space.
- Upscale and background removal stay on the AI photo editor. They are Pro.
- Venice does not train on your inputs. A third-party model still receives the image needed to edit.
What makes a strong text-edit prompt?
A broad prompt rewrites more of the picture than you asked. A strong edit quotes the old phrase, says where it sits, and quotes the new phrase.
Say which words stay and which words change. If the subtitle should go too, say that in the same prompt.
The default image model is Z-Image Turbo. It is free, at 15 image prompts a day. Leave it selected, or open the model list and pick another. In Studio, set the aspect ratio so it matches the picture you uploaded.
1. Explain which words change, and what they become
Name the line in the prompt. Quote the words that are there now, say whether they are the headline, the price, or the label, and quote the replacement.
Weak: "Change the words on this poster to something cooler."
Stronger: "The headline at the top of the poster says "OPEN LATE". Replace that headline with "NIGHT MARKET". Keep the rest of the poster, including the border and the photo, unchanged."
- Quote the old line and say where it sits.
- Put the new line in quotes, with the capitalization you want.
- Say what must stay: border, photo, colors.
Tradeoff: "Change the text" with no line named can repaint the photo. Name the words and say the photo stays.
2. Remove text by naming the line and the fill
Tell Studio or Agentic Chat which words to take out, and what should be there instead.
Weak: "Delete the writing and make it pop."
Stronger: "Remove the line across the wall that says "SAMPLE". Fill that spot with the same wall color and plaster texture around it. Do not add new lettering."
- Say "do not add new lettering" or you may get a replacement word.
- Name the fill: wall, sky, paper, table.
- If two lines must go, quote both, or say "remove every word on the poster."
3. Set the ratio in Studio and leave the font name out
Studio does not give you a font menu. Match the existing letter weight and color when the letters should look the same. If the look should change, describe the new look.
Weak: "Use Helvetica Bold, 8k, vertical."
Stronger: Set the aspect ratio in Studio to match the source image. Prompt: "The door label says "ROOM 2". Replace that label with "ROOM 4". Match the existing letter weight and color. Change nothing else."
- Set the aspect ratio in Studio before you generate.
- Match the existing letter weight and color when you want the same look.
- Leave pixel counts out of the prompt.
4. One string per pass
Change one line at a time. If the headline, the price, and the date all move in one prompt, you cannot tell which line went wrong.
Weak: "Update the headline, the date, the price, and the sponsor logo text."
Stronger: "Replace only the headline that says "OPEN LATE" with "ROOM 4". Leave the date and the price exactly as they are."
- One quoted replacement.
- Name the lines that must survive.
- Run a second edit if a second line is actually wrong.
Tradeoff: A poster with one baked-in texture across the letters may still smear if the new word is much longer than the old one. Shorten the replacement and generate again.
How do you edit text in an image on Venice?
- Open Venice Studio and upload the image, or open Agentic Chat.
- Leave the default model, Z-Image Turbo, or select another image model.
- In Studio, set the aspect ratio to match the source image.
- In the prompt, quote the words that are there now, say where they sit, and quote the new wording. To remove a line, name that line and describe the fill.
- Say what must stay: the photo, the border, the other lines.
- Generate. If a second line changed, describe only the headline on the next pass.
- For a higher-resolution export or a cut-out background, switch to the Pro controls on the AI photo editor. Those are upscale, background removal, and variants.
Z-Image Turbo is free, at 15 image prompts a day. Some other models spend credits. Pro at $18 a month includes 100 credits. You do this in Venice. You do not need a separate account with the lab that trained the model. Venice does not train on your inputs. If you select a third-party model, that provider receives the image and the prompt needed to edit.
Copy-paste prompts
Replace a headline. "The headline at the top says "OPEN LATE". Replace that headline with "NIGHT MARKET". Match the existing letter weight and color. Keep the photo and the border unchanged. No other new text."
Remove a watermark line. "Remove the faint line of text across the bottom that reads "PREVIEW". Fill that strip with the surrounding paper texture. Do not add lettering, logos, or a signature."
Short label on a product photo. "The small label on the bottle says "BATCH 7". Replace that label with "BATCH 12". Keep the bottle, the glass, and the table the same. No extra words."
When should you switch models?
Leave the default, Z-Image Turbo, or select another image model when you want a different edit of the same picture. In either case, explain which text to change and quote the new line.
Use the photo editor for upscale and background removal after the words are right. Ask the edit to match the existing letter weight and color.

| Survivors | Unstated | "Leave the date and the price" |
| Removal | "Delete the writing" | "Remove the line that says "SAMPLE". Fill with the surrounding plaster. No new lettering." |
| Model | Switching models and wording together | Default, or one model you chose, then generate |
| Ratio | "8k vertical" | The ratio set in Studio |
Common mistakes
Pitfall: A prompt that redesigns the poster.
Fix: Say the photo, border, and colors stay. Quote only the new line.
Pitfall: Asking the edit to identify the font.
Fix: Say "match the existing letter weight and color."
Pitfall: A new phrase much longer than the old one.
Fix: Shorten the words, then generate again.
Pitfall: Using upscale before the text is right.
Fix: Finish the wording in Venice Studio or Agentic Chat. Upscale is a Pro control on the photo editor, after the edit.
Frequently asked questions
How do I edit text in an image with AI?
In Venice Studio, upload the image, leave the default model or select another, and explain which words to change. Quote the old line, say where it sits, and quote the new wording. You can give that same explanation in Agentic Chat. Tell it to leave the rest of the image unchanged.
How do I remove text from an image?
Name the line and describe the fill: the surrounding wall, paper, or sky, and "do not add new lettering." Do that in Venice Studio or Agentic Chat, the same way you replace a line.
Can an AI text edit tell me the font in an image?
No. Ask it to match the existing weight and color, or describe the look you want.
Should an image text edit go in the prompt or in Studio settings?
Set the aspect ratio in Studio. Put the explanation of which words change, and the quoted new wording, in the prompt.
Can I edit text in an image on Venice without another company's account?
Yes. You upload the image and generate in Venice Studio, or you describe the change in Agentic Chat. Venice does not train on your inputs and does not keep a server-side history of what you generate. If you select a third-party model, that provider still receives the image and the prompt.
Is an image text edit private on Venice?
Venice does not train on your inputs. If the model you select is a third-party model, that provider receives what it needs to edit.
Where do I edit text in an image with AI?
Explain which line to change, quote the replacement, and generate in Venice Studio or Agentic Chat. If the fill looks wrong, name the line more specifically or shorten the new text and run it once more.
