How to Generate an Image with Seedream 5.0 Pro

1. Choose Your Format

Select Seedream 5.0 Pro in the CharaLab image generator. Start with text for a new concept or add reference images to guide the subject and layout. Choose from eight aspect ratios: 9:16, 16:9, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 3:2, 2:3 or 21:9.

2. Write the Prompt, Add References

Describe the subject, visual style, layout and exact text you want in the image. Add up to 10 reference images to guide structure, colour and material. For a targeted edit, upload an image with clear annotations and explain the intended change in your prompt.

3. Generate, Review and Download

Choose 1K for 6.5 credits per image or 2K for 13 credits, then generate and review the result. Adjust the prompt or references if needed and download PNG or JPG. The first reference image adds no extra charge; each additional reference adds 0.5 credits.

AI Poster Generation with Text Built into the Layout

Build promotional posters with headlines, offer details and dates in the same image. Seedream 5.0 Pro uses text hierarchy and layout planning to help reduce manual composition. On CharaLab, choose 16:9 for a website banner or 3:4 and 9:16 for social posts, at 1K or 2K. Review small print, spelling and numbers before publishing.

Turn Complex Information into Detailed Infographics

Describe an outline, supply the key facts and ask Seedream 5.0 Pro to organise charts, labels, illustrations and captions on one canvas. Use it to explore educational posters, visual explainers and one-page reports. The tea infographic and car blueprint below offer prompt ideas for information-rich layouts. Check factual content, chart values and labels against your source material.

Guide Image Edits with References and Sketches

Upload an annotated reference or rough sketch and describe the area, colour, material or layout you want to change. Seedream 5.0 Pro can use visual guidance to target edits and develop a sketch into a finished image concept. On CharaLab, you can attach up to 10 reference images and export PNG or JPG. Compare the result with the original, especially after several rounds of editing.

Generate Image Text in More Than 10 Languages

Prompt and generate image text in more than 10 languages, including English, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Japanese, Korean and Arabic. The model supports language-specific typography, including Arabic right-to-left text and Spanish accents. Adapt a poster or campaign concept for different markets, then review the wording and reading order with a fluent speaker.
