Negative photocopy

Negative photocopy

A negative photocopy inverts the colors of the document when creating the photocopy resulting in letters that appear white on a black background instead of black on a white background. Negative photocopies of old or faded documents sometimes produce documents which have better focus and are easier to read and study.
