Yeah, it is amazing. I proof read a document that I had to submit to HR 3 times that was locked so it couldn't be spell checked. I had 10 spelling errors in it.

One trick that I learned is to read a paragraph from the end backward your mind doesn't work the same way apparently and you can detect the spelling errors.
