Change the date in a scanned flyer from a phone
Update a date on a scanned letter, agreement draft or notice without rescanning it. Camera foreshortening is fitted as a horizontal scale on each line, and the paper grain around the word is kept, so the new word sits in the photo like the old one.

Scanning with a phone

- • Photos carry perspective, uneven light and JPEG compression, and some apps add a hidden OCR text layer.

What changes on the page
- • Digits are redrawn in the line's own font, so the new date matches the numbers around it.
Questions people ask
+Can I use a different date format?
Yes, as long as the new date fits on the line. A longer date moves the rest of the line along.
+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.
