Photographed at an angle

  • • Camera foreshortening is measured as a horizontal scale on each line.
  • • The new word takes the same scale, so it leans and narrows like its neighbours.

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.
