We’ve been rolling out major updates to Translucens, improving the algorithms and adding new cleaning settings, including a new feature I’ve wanted for really long: The masking tool! Now you can use a brush to erase background noise or protect regions from enhancement.

The left side shows the dark, heavily stained original page, while the right side shows an enhanced version with pink and blue masking overlays applied. The right-hand sidebar displays the "Masking" panel with the Brush tool active, showing options to Protect, Erase, and Unmask, with a brush size slider set to 99px.A user interface screenshot of the Translucens software displaying a split-screen results view. The left half displays the original faded, brown manuscript folio with severe ink bleed-through.
