I've seen Facebook's TextStyleBrush (https://www.louisbouchard.ai/textstylebrush), along with a some specific papers with algorithms that do this (STEFANN [https://prasunroy.github.io/stefann/], SwapText [https://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_CVPR_2020/papers/Yang_SwapText_Image_Based_Texts_Transfer_in_Scenes_CVPR_2020_paper.pdf]).<p>Curious about whether anyone knows of a user-friendly tool out there that does this, e.g. you feed it a photo, some boundaries for the text to be changed, and the new text to replace it. Haven't found one, considering building.
