The format has a lossless mode that would have saved Xerox a lot of trouble, of course it was just that mode that was used to hack the iPhones.
Also for many texts you don't need every digit to be correct, hell any single typo, smudge or bad font can fuck you over if that is the case, no need for a Xerox. Ideally your numbers either include a checksum or have some other redundancy, like requiring that they are written out as words.
