present a pop-up pane for a first potential error of the one or more potential errors, wherein the pop-up pane comprises one or more options for correcting the first potential error;
maintain an input focus on the presented textual content to facilitate a user manually entering a correction in the presented textual content; and
if a user selection of one of the one or more options in the pop-up pane is received, correct the potential error in accordance with the selected option.
12 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein a visual indication of each of the one or more errors in the presented textual content comprises at least one of highlighting or underlining the one or more potential errors.
13 . The apparatus of claim 11 , the processing device to continuously present and correct until all potential errors in the textual content have been corrected or until a user action to interrupt error correction in the textual content is received.
14 . The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the text based document is generated as a result of optical character recognition processing.

present a text segment comprising the first error within a predefined zone of a display wherein the pop-up pane is located beneath the text segment and at a center of the text segment pertaining to the first error and wherein an input cursor is pointing to a first character of the text segment pertaining to the first potential error; and
provide a second visual indication of the text segment comprising the first error wherein the first error is contained entirely within the second visual indication.
16 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein to present a text based document comprising textual content, the processing device is to present the textual content in a text portion of a display and an image associated with the text based document in an image portion of the display.
17 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the one or more options for correcting the first error comprise at least one of an ignore option, an add option, a replace option, or a text input by the user.
18 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the replace option comprises a list of recognized words from a dictionary of words associated with the first error.
19 . A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, comprising instructions that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:
presenting a text based document, comprising textual content;
identifying one or more potential errors in the textual content;
providing a visual indication of each of the one or more potential errors in the presented textual content;
presenting a pop-up pane for a first potential error of the one or more potential errors, wherein the pop-up pane comprises one or more options for correcting the first potential error;
maintaining an input focus on the presented textual content to facilitate a user manually entering a correction in the presented textual content; and
if a user selection of one of the one or more options in the pop-up pane is received, correcting the potential error in accordance with the selected option.
20 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 19 , wherein the operations further comprise:
