Bad Scanner Text Effect

This typographic distortion effect looks like it was dragged through a photocopier mid-print — all smear, blur, and ghosting. Letters ripple vertically, stretch downward, and leave behind shadowy echoes. The noise texture adds a rough Xerox grain. The high-resolution PSD resource works well for editorial headlines, band flyers, protest posters, gallery wall typography, anti-design zines, moody film titles, streetwear graphics, and playlist covers.

This resource is created, and fully compatible with Adobe Photoshop. For the best experience, we recommend to use the latest Creative Cloud version of the app.
