Dangers of OCR and spellcheckers

I have found a couple of errors with OCR misreading letters and creating words that pass the spell check.

For example the letters c and l together form a d, so you get dick instead of click (Double dick on the mouse button). Also r and n can form a m. "So nursey*, if you want to send out this document stating that the patient has a large bum instead of a large burn, go ahead!"
