Combined Image and Text Document
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- generating a scanned image of a document utilizing a scanning application;
generating text representations of text that is included in the document utilizing a character recognition application;
correlating position data of the text representations with locations of corresponding text in the scanned image of the document; and
rendering the scanned image for display overlaid with the text representations as a transparent overlay, the scanned image and the text representations being independently user-selectable for display.

Abstract
A combined image and text document is described. In embodiment(s), a scanned image of a document can be generated utilizing a scanning application, and text representations of text that is included in the document can be generated utilizing a character recognition application. Position data of the text representations can be correlated with locations of corresponding text in the scanned image of the document. The scanned image can then be rendered for display overlaid with the text representations as a transparent overlay, where the scanned image and the text representations are independently user-selectable for display. A user-selectable input can be received to display the text representations without the scanned image, the scanned image without the text representations, or to display the text representations adjacent the scanned image.

9. A document representation system, comprising:
-
a scanned image of a document generated by a scanning application; a character recognition application configured to generate text representations of text that is included in the document, and correlate position data of the text representations with locations of corresponding text in the scanned image of the document; and a display application configured to initiate a display of the scanned image overlaid with the text representations as a transparent overlay, the scanned image and the text representations being independently user-selectable for display. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. One or more computer-readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed, direct a display application to:
-
initiate display of a scanned image of a document generated by a scanning application; initiate display of text representations over the scanned image as a transparent overlay, the text representations generated from text that is included in the document and generated by a character recognition application; and receive a user-selectable input to initiate the display of at least one of the text representations without the scanned image, or the scanned image without the text representations. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
