We are thrilled to release Qwen-Image, an image generation foundation model in the Qwen series that achieves significant advances in complex text rendering and precise image editing. Experiments show strong general capabilities in both image generation and editing, with exceptional performance in text rendering, especially for Chinese.

Install the latest version of diffusers
pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers
The following contains a code snippet illustrating how to use the model to generate images based on text prompts:
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
import torch
model_name = "Qwen/Qwen-Image"
# Load the pipeline
if torch.cuda.is_available():
torch_dtype = torch.bfloat16
device = "cuda"
else:
torch_dtype = torch.float32
device = "cpu"
pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(model_name, torch_dtype=torch_dtype)
pipe = pipe.to(device)
positive_magic = {
"en": ", Ultra HD, 4K, cinematic composition.", # for english prompt
"zh": ", č¶
ęø
ļ¼4Kļ¼ēµå½±ēŗ§ęå¾." # for chinese prompt
}
# Generate image
prompt = '''A coffee shop entrance features a chalkboard sign reading "Qwen Coffee š $2 per cup," with a neon light beside it displaying "éä¹åé®". Next to it hangs a poster showing a beautiful Chinese woman, and beneath the poster is written "Ļā3.1415926-53589793-23846264-33832795-02384197". Ultra HD, 4K, cinematic composition'''
negative_prompt = " " # using an empty string if you do not have specific concept to remove
# Generate with different aspect ratios
aspect_ratios = {
"1:1": (1328, 1328),
"16:9": (1664, 928),
"9:16": (928, 1664),
"4:3": (1472, 1140),
"3:4": (1140, 1472),
"3:2": (1584, 1056),
"2:3": (1056, 1584),
}
width, height = aspect_ratios["16:9"]
image = pipe(
prompt=prompt + positive_magic["en"],
negative_prompt=negative_prompt,
width=width,
height=height,
num_inference_steps=50,
true_cfg_scale=4.0,
generator=torch.Generator(device="cuda").manual_seed(42)
).images[0]
image.save("example.png")
One of its standout capabilities is high-fidelity text rendering across diverse images. Whether itās alphabetic languages like English or logographic scripts like Chinese, Qwen-Image preserves typographic details, layout coherence, and contextual harmony with stunning accuracy. Text isnāt just overlaidāitās seamlessly integrated into the visual fabric.

Beyond text, Qwen-Image excels at general image generation with support for a wide range of artistic styles. From photorealistic scenes to impressionist paintings, from anime aesthetics to minimalist design, the model adapts fluidly to creative prompts, making it a versatile tool for artists, designers, and storytellers.

When it comes to image editing, Qwen-Image goes far beyond simple adjustments. It enables advanced operations such as style transfer, object insertion or removal, detail enhancement, text editing within images, and even human pose manipulationāall with intuitive input and coherent output. This level of control brings professional-grade editing within reach of everyday users.

But Qwen-Image doesnāt just create or editāit understands. It supports a suite of image understanding tasks, including object detection, semantic segmentation, depth and edge (Canny) estimation, novel view synthesis, and super-resolution. These capabilities, while technically distinct, can all be seen as specialized forms of intelligent image editing, powered by deep visual comprehension.

Together, these features make Qwen-Image not just a tool for generating pretty pictures, but a comprehensive foundation model for intelligent visual creation and manipulationāwhere language, layout, and imagery converge.
