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.
