My goal is to make a website with translations. Just getting started. The Notes app's scanning feature doesn't cut it; Scanner Pro is effective for OCR purposes but loses color and has privacy issues.

For now, please enjoy this effervescent Royal Gelatin ad. Could make a good t-shirt?
A vintage Arabic advertisement for Royal Gelatin. Features a black and white illustration of a layered dessert parfait in a tall stemmed glass, topped with a slice of citrus and a spring of mint, surrounded by decorative bubbles. The ad includes Arabic text promoting the product and the "Royal Gelatin Dessert" brand name in both Arabic and English, with a small product box illustration in the bottom right corner.
