Faded print

  • • The ink tone is measured from the existing words, so the new word is just as faint.
  • • The new word must still be read back correctly by OCR, or the edit is refused.

Questions people ask

+Can the number get longer?

Yes. The rest of the line moves along, as long as it stays on the page.

+What if a word cannot be changed invisibly?

You get the exact reason, such as a stamp in the way or a font that could not be identified, instead of a smudged page.
