Why does AI-generated ad text come out garbled, and how do I fix it?
Fix garbled AI ad text in an editable text layer instead of rerolling an entire ad for a headline correction.
Published by Neurodance Research ·
Short answer
AI image and video models often render letter shapes rather than real type, so text can drift or garble. Do not reroll a good ad only to fix a headline. Replace or correct the copy in an editable text layer, then re-export so only the text changes.
Practical steps
- Keep product claims, headlines and CTA copy outside the generation prompt where possible. - Use an editable text layer for the final approved wording. - Review spelling, legibility, localization and disclosure before publishing.
Keep in mind
If text is part of a physical product label, use a real product reference and consider replacing the shot rather than relying on generated lettering.
