yes you can and it may also be important, which is just when the scanner is equipped with OCR recognition, then you can also get something wrong here.

"Don't do a scan you didn't fake yourself" by David Kriesel. Here the so-called "Pattern Matching" was responsible for changing values, hopefully this should not take place anymore, but I do not want to exclude it.

If it is to be supplements, this can also be highlighted in color if it is to be recognizable to the opposite.
