Lost the PSD? Only have the JPG? Box each piece of text in your image - a price, a date, a headline, a button - and type what it should say. Recovoly replaces every one in the design's own fonts and effects, and leaves the rest of the image exactly as it was.

Once text is baked into an image, there's no layer to click and no font to change. Until now the choice was rebuilding the design from scratch or pasting a text box on top.

Illustration. Sun, sunglasses, palms and waves never change - only the boxed copy does.
From the file you have to the file you need - without opening a design app.
Sign in to Recovoly and open the AI Restore Studio. New here? A free account takes a minute.
JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, TIFF or a PDF - the flattened file is all you need.
One box per piece of text. The studio reads every line, so there's nothing to retype.
Tap the words to replace, type the new copy for each area and restore them all in one go.
Most image updates are more than one word. Mark each one separately and give it its own replacement. When you press Restore, the areas are rewritten one at a time - each on top of the last - so a dark pill, a spaced date and a shadowed headline each get the treatment they need.

A replacement is only useful if nobody can tell. Here is what Recovoly keeps exactly as it was.
Text stays on its baseline and in its column; nothing else moves.
Backgrounds, shapes and gradient fills behind the text are rebuilt to match.
Drop shadows, outlines, glows and textures on the type are carried over.
Everything outside your boxes is the original file, pixel for pixel.
Display type on a coloured shape, a caption over a photo, a shadowed headline - the AI copies the style already in each area. Here's an honest view of what works best.
Works great
Harder
Use the largest version of the image, widen the box, or try Rebuild strength.
Five steps per area, repeated for every area you mark.
The text inside every box is read, along with its style - typeface, weight and colour.
Each area is cut out with the design around it, so the AI sees the shape, fill and effects.
Your replacement is set in place; the words you didn't pick stay where they are.
The result is aligned to the crop and colour-matched to the untouched pixels around it.
Each area is blended through a feathered mask, then the next one is done on top.
Compare & zoom
Slide between original and replaced, and zoom in on every area.
Strength per area
Gentle, Balanced or Rebuild for each piece of text.

Six habits that make replacements invisible.
Give each piece of copy its own area - a price, a date, a button - so each gets its own reading and replacement.
Box the full line, then tap only the words you want to swap. The untouched words teach the AI the style.
"30%" → "50%" is effortless. For longer copy, widen the box or tighten the wording.
Use the original export, not a compressed copy from a chat app or social network.
Stylised display fonts can be misread. Tap Fix and correct it before you restore.
Zoom into each area in compare view. Not quite right? Run that area again or try Rebuild strength.
Turn one campaign creative into the next - new offer, new date, new market - without a design ticket.
Keep a consistent look by re-using approved graphics with fresh copy every week.
Handle the 'just change the date' requests on files where the source has gone missing.
Update badges, claims and prices across product images in minutes.
Produce French, German or Spanish versions of a graphic by typing the translated copy.
Correct labels on diagrams, charts and slide images before they're shared.
Replace text in images you own or have the right to edit - your banners, graphics, screenshots and product images. Don't use it to alter IDs, money, receipts, certificates, contracts or official records, or to mislead anyone. That breaks our terms of use and may be illegal.
Log in, open the AI Restore Studio and upload the image. Draw a box around each piece of text you want to replace and set it to Text. The studio reads the words; tap the ones to swap and type the replacements. Press Restore and every marked area is rewritten in the image's own fonts, one after another. Compare, then export.
No. That is exactly what this is for. Recovoly works on the flattened image itself - the JPG or PNG a client sent, an exported banner, a screenshot - so you can change the words even when the layered source file is lost or was never yours.
Yes. Mark up to 12 areas per image - a price, a date, a headline, a button label - and give each one its own replacement. They are restored one at a time, each on top of the last, in a single run.
The AI rewrites each replacement in the style already in that area: typeface, weight, size, letter spacing and colour, plus effects such as drop shadows, outlines, gradient fills and text on a coloured shape or photo. You don't need to identify or install the font.
Yes - type the translation as the replacement and it is set in the same style. Translations in Latin-script languages (French, Spanish, German, Portuguese and so on) give the most reliable results. Other scripts can work, but check the result closely. Recovoly doesn't translate for you; you type the words you want.
Nothing. Each area is colour-matched to its surroundings and blended back through a feathered mask of the shape you drew. Outside your marks the exported image is the original, pixel for pixel - layout, logos, photos and background included.
Keep replacements close in length for the cleanest result. If the new text is longer, draw the box wide enough to hold it, or shorten the copy. Very long replacements in a tight space may be squeezed or wrap differently than you expect.
Upload JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, TIFF and more, or a PDF (each page can be edited). Export at the original resolution as PNG, JPG or PDF, or save the result to your Recovoly assets.
It works on screenshots, slides and app images. Large, crisp text gives the best results; very small text - a few pixels high - is harder, so use the highest-resolution version of the image you have.
Each marked area costs 10 points from your Recovoly balance, so replacing two lines costs 20 points. Reading the text and auto-detecting areas are free. See the pricing page for plans.
Same studio, different job. Change text in photo is about camera pictures - real signs, menus and labels with lighting and perspective. Replace text in image is about digital files - banners, social graphics, flyers, infographics and screenshots - and replacing several lines or translating them without the source file.
Use it on images you own or have the right to edit. Don't use it to alter IDs, money, receipts, certificates, contracts or official records, or to mislead anyone - that breaks our terms of use and may be illegal.
