A project-associated, AI-assisted checklist for planning text corrections inside screenshots, posters, and product images. AI Image Text Editor works in the browser and currently includes nine free credits, with optional account-based credits available. The steps below use hypothetical review situations rather than claims of independent testing. Before editing, confirm permission to modify the source image. After generation, compare names, dates, prices, labels, spacing, contrast, and surrounding pixels. Keep the original file, treat every output as a draft, and record the final approval decision.

## Items

### 1. [Confirm permission and preserve the original](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/0/confirm-permission-and-preserve-the-original)

Item ID: `0`

- Notes: Before changing a screenshot, poster, menu, or product image, confirm that you own the file or have permission to modify it. Save an untouched copy with a clear date and source name. Note where the image will be used and who must approve the result. This prevents an attractive draft from silently replacing the only reliable original, and gives reviewers a stable reference when they compare wording, layout, and visual details.

### 2. [Define the exact replacement text](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/1/define-the-exact-replacement-text)

Item ID: `1`

- Link: -
- Notes: Write the desired replacement as a precise instruction rather than a vague request. Include the exact old text, exact new text, capitalization, punctuation, and any line-break constraint. If the image includes a date, price, dosage, address, legal notice, or product claim, verify the replacement against an authoritative source first. A narrow instruction makes the generated draft easier to review and reduces accidental changes elsewhere in the design.

### 3. [Select only the intended text region](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/2/select-only-the-intended-text-region)

Item ID: `2`

- Link: -
- Notes: Select the smallest region that fully contains the text and enough surrounding background to reconstruct it cleanly. Avoid including nearby logos, faces, signatures, icons, or unrelated labels. For curved, rotated, or perspective text, leave a modest margin around the letters while keeping other objects outside the selection. Record the intended boundary in the review brief so a second person can tell whether the edit changed more pixels than necessary.

### 4. [Generate one clearly scoped draft](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/3/generate-one-clearly-scoped-draft)

Item ID: `3`

- Link: -
- Notes: Generate one draft at a time and keep the instruction limited to the approved correction. Do not treat fluent output as proof that the spelling, font weight, kerning, background texture, or object boundaries are correct. If the tool offers multiple alternatives, label them as drafts rather than final files. Stop when the requested wording appears clearly enough for review; repeated generation can introduce new visual inconsistencies without improving the required correction.

### 5. [Compare names dates prices and labels](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/4/compare-names-dates-prices-and-labels)

Item ID: `4`

- Link: -
- Notes: Review factual content separately from appearance. Compare every name, number, date, price, unit, URL, and warning against the approved source, then inspect typography and alignment. Zoom in to check halos, repeated texture, broken letter edges, inconsistent shadows, and accidental changes around the selected area. Finally zoom back out, because an edit that looks plausible at high magnification can still appear misplaced or disproportionately sharp in the complete image.

### 6. [Inspect spacing contrast and surrounding pixels](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/5/inspect-spacing-contrast-and-surrounding-pixels)

Item ID: `5`

### 7. [Check the complete image at normal size](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/6/check-the-complete-image-at-normal-size)

Item ID: `6`

### 8. [Record the human approval decision](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/7/record-the-human-approval-decision)

Item ID: `7`

### 9. [Export a clearly named approved copy](https://listium.com/@mathaichat/151465/a-responsible-image-text-editing-checklist/8/export-a-clearly-named-approved-copy)
