Abstract

Localizing a font into new languages is a highly intricate task requiring precise design adaptation of glyphs, color/texture, and spacing/kerning, from source to target languages. Most existing methods focus on single glyph generation with limited capability in handling multilingual font rendering. In this work, we propose LoGAN, a VLM-based agentic framework for few-shot multilingual font localization, which takes in a small number of individual glyphs from a font or letters from a logo and uses them to generate complete character sets in other languages. LoGAN breaks down this task into multiple components: a glyph-level diffusion model, a style finetuning module, a spacing and kerning transfer algorithm, and a texture expansion model, with a VLM agent coordinator. LoGAN achieves broad language coverage for font localization with various styles, including Chinese/Korean/Japanese (CJK). We evaluate our approach on both font and real-world logo datasets spanning more than 27 languages and compare it against both specialized font generation and state-of-the-art image editing models with strong text rendering capabilities (e.g., FLUX, Nano-Banana). Our approach yields higher glyph fidelity while maintaining better style, texture, and kerning consistency according to both quantitative and qualitative evaluations.

SmartFont: Dynamic Condition Allocation for Few-Shot Font Generation

Few-shot font generation simultaneously requires global structural completeness and fine-grained local style fidelity. Existing methods usually either rely on global content-style modeling, which is robust but imperfectly disentangled, or emphasize component/local modeling, which captures fine details but relies heavily on local priors and reference coverage. We argue that the key challenge is not merely to learn purer conditions, but to organize complementary yet biased global and local conditions through multi-level allocation during generation. To this end, we propose SmartFont, a diffusion-based few-shot font generation framework that combines global content-style generation with weakly supervised local corrective experts. The local branch performs semantic-spatial allocation by learning expert-wise local concepts and semantically meaningful spatial maps under weak component supervision, enabling fine-grained correction without requiring explicit component-conditioned inference. On top of this, a denoising-state condition allocation module adaptively weights global content, global style, and local corrective feature across timesteps and injection blocks. Extensive experiments show that SmartFont achieves better global-local balance, improves glyph quality and local detail fidelity.

LogoDiffuser: Training-Free Multilingual Logo Generation and Stylization via Letter-Aware Attention Control

Recent advances in text-to-image generation have been remarkable, but generating multilingual design logos that harmoniously integrate visual and textual elements remains a challenging task. Existing methods often distort character geometry when applying creative styles and struggle to support multilingual text generation without additional training. To address these challenges, we propose LogoDiffuser, a training-free method that synthesizes multilingual logo designs using the multimodal diffusion transformer. Instead of using textual prompts, we input the target characters as images, enabling robust character structure control regardless of language. We first analyze the joint attention mechanism to identify core tokens, which are tokens that strongly respond to textual structures. With this observation, our method integrates character structure and visual design by injecting the most informative attention maps. Furthermore, we perform layer-wise aggregation of attention maps to mitigate attention shifts across layers and obtain consistent core tokens. Extensive experiments and user studies demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance in multilingual logo generation.

VecFontLLM: Anchor-Guided Direct Synthesis of Chinese Vector Fonts

Direct generation of Chinese vector fonts is a challenging and ongoing problem. A Chinese vector glyph contains complex component structure, anchor layout, and Bézier curve details, which work at different scales, but a standard vector sequence writes them together in one long sequence, making the task of vector font synthesis challenging. Existing direct vector generators often fail on complex characters, while raster-domain methods must vectorize the synthesized glyph images afterward. To address the above-mentioned problem, this paper proposes VecFontLLM, an anchor-guided multimodal large language model for direct few-shot synthesis of Chinese vector fonts. Our key idea is to generate vector glyphs through anchors rather than a standard vector sequence. Specifically, the proposed VecFontLLM first predicts and refines an anchor scaffold that fixes the coarse layout of components and contours, and then completes Bézier control points to recover local curvature and style. At test time, a confidence-guided generation chain samples multiple component candidates and continues synthesis from the highest-confidence one, improving stability for complex glyphs. This work demonstrates, for the first time, high-quality few-shot synthesis of complex Chinese vector glyphs directly in the vector domain, without raster generation or vectorization. Experiments on several Chinese font datasets show substantial improvements over existing vector font synthesis methods, competitive glyph rendering quality against raster-domain baselines, and vector command distributions close to real fonts.
