Rexograph
Retro copies without the smell
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Rexograph turns your ordinary photos and documents into authentic-looking copies from a 1960s-80s spirit duplicator, the purple-inked "Ditto machine" that once filled classrooms, church basements, and office mailrooms with its unmistakable smell and look.
Snap a photo of anything, or import a PDF, and Rexograph recreates the entire physical process: the aniline dye tint, uneven solvent wetting, real paper grain, ink streaks and blots, even the faint ghost of a neighboring page bleeding through a damp stack. It's built on real research into how these machines actually worked, not a generic photo filter.
FEATURES
- 6 ready-made presets, from barely-touched "Clean" to heavily-worn "Extreme"
- 12 individual controls for total creative control, including grain, streaks, smudges, purple tint, paper aging, light-exposure fading, and page rotation
- Every slider includes a plain-English explanation of the real chemistry or mechanics it models
- Import photos, scan documents, or bring in multi-page PDFs (up to 20 pages)
- Set-off / ghosting between pages of the same document, just like real damp copies stacked in a tray
- Pinch to zoom, and compare original vs. processed side by side
- Export as JPEG, PNG, or PDF at your chosen size and quality
- Batch-process multiple images at once
- 100% on-device processing, your photos never leave your phone
Whether you are making a nostalgic gift, dressing up a flyer for a period-accurate look, or you just love the aesthetic of mid-century duplicator culture, Rexograph gets the details right.

Fixed an issue where the Paper Age slider didn't consistently make output look older as you increased it.
