# **gguf quantized version of pixart**

<Gallery />

## **setup (once)**
- drag PixArt-XL-2-1024-MS-f16.gguf to > ./ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models
- drag t5xxl_fp16-q4_0.gguf to > ./ComfyUI/models/text_encoders
- drag pixart_vae_fp8_e4m3fn.safetensors to > ./ComfyUI/models/vae

## **run it straight (no installation needed way)**
- run the .bat file in the main directory (assuming you are using the gguf-node [pack](https://github.com/calcuis/gguf/releases) below)
- drag the workflow json file (below) or the demo picture above to > your browser

### **workflow**
- example workflow for gguf
- example workflow for safetensors

### review
- should set the output image size according to the model stated, i.e., 1024x1024 or 512x512
- small size model but good quality pictures; support image-to-image, image-text-to-image; and t5 encoder allows you to input short description or sentence instead of tag(s)
- upgrade your gguf-node to the latest version for pixart model support
