Midjourney Prompt to Correct Text
Midjourney is an artificial intelligence image generation tool known for its exceptional visual quality. However, one of its major challenges remains rendering text within generated images. Missing letters, spelling mistakes, and distorted characters are frequent issues users encounter. Correcting text in a Midjourney image requires a methodical approach to prompt engineering. By combining precise instructions regarding typography, placement, and character style, it is possible to obtain legible text that stays true to your intent. This page provides optimized prompts to maximize text accuracy in your Midjourney creations. Whether you want to generate a logo with a brand name, a poster with a slogan, or a mockup containing embedded text, the techniques presented here will help you significantly reduce typographic errors. We will cover key parameters, phrasing that forces Midjourney to respect spelling, and tips for achieving a clean textual result from the very first generation.

Why this prompt works
This prompt works thanks to three key mechanisms: using quotation marks around the exact text forces Midjourney to treat the string as a literal element to reproduce. The --style raw parameter reduces the model's artistic interpretation, thereby limiting creative deformations applied to characters. Finally, --stylize 50 keeps the stylization level low to prioritize text fidelity over overall aesthetics.
Use Cases
Variants
Expected Output
You will obtain a sharp image with clearly legible text, correctly spelled and well positioned at the center of the composition. The letters will be distinct, without stray characters or deformations, on a clean background that highlights the typography. The result will be directly usable for mockups, presentation visuals, or communication materials.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Midjourney make spelling mistakes in generated text?
Midjourney is a diffusion model trained on images, not text. It learns to reproduce the visual appearance of letters without understanding their linguistic meaning. Each character is treated as a graphical shape, which leads to confusion between similar letters (like 'n' and 'h'), duplications, or omissions. Recent versions (V5 and V6) have significantly improved text rendering, especially thanks to quotation marks that signal the model to reproduce an exact sequence of characters.
How can I maximize my chances of getting correct text on the first try?
Several techniques significantly increase accuracy: always enclose your text in double quotation marks, limit yourself to a maximum of 3-4 words per generation, use --style raw mode to reduce artistic interpretation, lower the --stylize parameter to between 30 and 80, and specify in the prompt that each letter must be distinct and legible. If the result isn't satisfactory, use the Vary (Subtle) function on the best variation instead of relaunching a full generation.
Is there an alternative if Midjourney can't render my text correctly?
If the text remains incorrect after several attempts, the best approach is to generate the image without text and then add the typography in post-production with a tool like Canva, Photoshop, or Figma. You can also use Midjourney's inpainting feature to regenerate only the text area by providing a targeted prompt. Finally, tools like Ideogram or DALL-E 3 are currently more effective than Midjourney for text rendering if that's your primary need.
