recopy
Write out anew
To recopy is to copy something again, typically to produce a cleaner or more accurate version: She recopied her notes before the exam.
The word implies the original copy was flawed, messy, or preliminary.
In an age of digital editing, recopying by hand has become less common but persists in penmanship practice and certain academic settings.
