Supporting tools
- Canva: Finalize exact text and layout.
- Image editor: Refine or composite if necessary.
- Copy master: Keep the approved wording separately.
What to check
- Character accuracy: Compare every word against the master.
- Visual hierarchy: Keep the main message easy to find.
- Long copy: Typeset small or detailed instructions.
Optional extension
- Approved wording: Prepare the message
- Ideogram: Explore poster ideas
- Human selection: Check the concept
- Layout app: Finalize exact copy
- Export review: Inspect and deliver
Optional design-production route using manual transfers. A convincing generated word can still be misspelled; editable final text remains the reliable layer for instructions and commands.
Lean starter
Ideogram + an approved copy master + one layout app. Keep the first title short and the composition clear.
Example
Short campaign title → poster concepts → letter-by-letter review → precise supporting copy → approved export.
