AI business card design: generate art, set contact text yourself
A card needs perfect phone numbers, so generate text-free artwork at 3:2 or 16:9 and add the contact lines in layout. Request and print notes on Sume.

For a business card, generate the artwork without text and typeset the name, phone and email yourself. Image models misspell names and scramble digits, and a card with a wrong digit is useless. On Sume, ask for a landscape ratio such as 3:2, which FLUX.2, Seedream and Nano Banana list, and leave an empty zone where the text will go (Image API).
Request the artwork
Say "no text, no logos" and describe the empty zone: "left half calm and plain, pattern on the right". Ask for png if you will edit it, then place the result in your design tool at the printer's size with its bleed.

"output_format": "png"
}''If you want text in the image
For a short company name, a model that renders text well may be fine: quote it, say how often it appears, and check the spelling. Keep phone and email out of the image. If you only need a logo-like word, treat it as artwork and still set the real text in layout (text in images).
| Element | Where it comes from |
|---|---|
| Background and pattern | Generated image |
| Company name, short | Either; proofread if generated |
| Person name | Typeset in layout |
| Phone and email | Typeset in layout |
| QR code | Generated by a QR tool, not an image model |
Resolution for print
Check the printer's pixel requirement against the image you got; if it is short, see the 300 DPI sizes post and the upscale API (print sizes).
