Best Practices

Achieve optimal results with these proven approaches:

Craft Specific, Detailed Prompts
Instead of vague descriptions like "create a logo," provide comprehensive details: "a minimalist vector logo featuring a geometric mountain peak in navy blue, with the company name 'Summit Solutions' in a modern sans-serif font below." The more specific your prompt, the more precisely Recraft V3 can deliver your vision. When including text in your images, always enclose the exact wording in quotation marks.

Leverage Style Presets Strategically
Choose the style parameter that matches your output format. Use `realistic_image` for photographic content, `digital_illustration` for artwork and graphics, and `vector_illustration` when you need scalable assets for print or large-format applications. Each style is optimized for different use cases—vector styles are particularly powerful for creating logos and design elements that maintain quality at any size.

Iterate with Consistent Parameters
When generating multiple images for a project, maintain consistent style and parameter settings to ensure visual coherence. This approach works particularly well for creating brand asset libraries or multi-image marketing campaigns where uniformity matters. For example, if you're developing a series of social media posts, use the same style preset and similar size settings across all generations.

Optimize Text Integration
Recraft V3 excels at rendering text within images, but placement and context matter. Specify where text should appear ("centered at the top," "on a sign in the background," "displayed on a poster held by the subject") and provide exact wording in quotes. For complex text layouts, break your prompt into clear spatial descriptions: "In the foreground, a wooden sign reads 'Welcome.' In the background, a banner displays 'Grand Opening 2024.'"

Control Brand Colors
Use the `colors` parameter to specify brand-specific color palettes. This ensures generated images align with your brand guidelines and maintain visual consistency across all creative assets. Provide colors as hex codes for precise control over the final output.
