How to use

100% maps each channel to 255 − channel. At 0% the image is unchanged.

Limits and behavior

Alpha is preserved; transparent pixels remain transparent. Still PNG, JPEG and WebP only, up to 20 MB, 4 megapixels and 4,096 pixels per side. Animated PNG/WebP are rejected. Processing and downloads stay on your device. Browser decoding applies EXIF orientation; exports do not preserve EXIF, DPI or original color-profile metadata. PNG preserves transparency; JPEG flattens it onto white. WebP export requires a browser encoder and is checked before download.

Turn dark pixel channels toward light and complementary colors for negative-style artwork.

Does color inversion make a scanned document accessible?

Not necessarily. Readability and contrast vary by source image; inspect the output.
