If Errata Corrige is a Macintosh program, some actions may be scriptable with 
appleScript.  I forget how you get a list of
scriptable features for a given program, but it's quite easy (I know I've done it 
before).  If it is not scriptable, the best
you might be able to do is automatically copy the essay to the clipboard and launch 
Errata Corrige.  You would then have to do
the rest manually.  I had this problem with a dictionary program I was trying to 
integrate that was not appleScriptable.

good luck,
