Inspect the edited date

Compare letter width, weight and baseline at full size. A suggested font is a starting point; load your own font when you need a closer match.

Compare PNG and JPG

The same project can export both formats. PNG avoids additional JPEG compression, while JPG is useful when file size matters.

Check texture around the words

The date sits on mostly flat yellow paper. Photographed signs with grain, shadows or perspective are harder and may need AI repair and manual adjustment.

JPEG export can change pixels across the image through compression. Choose PNG to avoid another JPEG encoding pass; it cannot recover detail already lost in the source.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Upload the JPG. The editor keeps the original for export and uses a smaller copy for analysis when needed.

  2. 2

    Click the text, type the change or choose Remove.

  3. 3

    Download as JPG at 95% quality or as lossless PNG.
