Edit a scanned poster from Microsoft Lens
Posters are reused for recurring events. Change the date and details on the same design and print it again. Scanned with Microsoft Lens? Edit the scan directly. 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.

How Microsoft Lens scans
- • Lens has document, whiteboard and business card modes; document mode gives the cleanest pages to edit.
- • Phone scanners photograph the page, straighten and crop it, and save the image into a PDF.
- • Photos carry perspective, uneven light and JPEG compression, and some apps add a hidden OCR text layer.
- • 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.
Questions people ask
+Do I need to convert the scan to Word first?
No. MythosPDF edits the scanned page itself. There is no conversion, so the page keeps its look.
+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.
