## Private by design

Changes are made on your device, in memory. The original file is untouched and the new one is only created when you press the button.

## Good to know

Inverting also turns photos into negatives. Pages are redrawn as images, so text can no longer be selected.

## Questions

### Why would I invert a PDF?

To read in the dark, to reduce glare on screens, or to turn a negative scan back into a positive.

### Does it use less ink?

No, the opposite. Don't print the inverted file.
