ScanTailor is not a OCR. It has got nothing to do with Indian Languages.

We understand there were a lot of questions about the
agenda of train
the trainer program. We have put together a rough draft which we
wanted to share with you all. [1] Just want to mention that this the
very first draft and is open to any kind of changes. We will also
write to each of the participants to know what aspects they'd like to
cover and incorporate those in our sessions.
Thank you for the link to the draft schedule. I have a somewhat tangential query. I notice
that you recommend ScanTailor <http://sourceforge.net/projects/scantailor/> for the
participants. I was wondering if it would be possible to share (later, if not now) an
estimate of accuracy of the software in post processing and handling digitized content in
Indian languages. Perhaps using random samples from
archive.org
And, as a suggestion, I would request that you put up pre-participation reading material
wherever possible. For example, the sessions on Introduction to Unicode or, Fonts and
Rendering would require some prior knowledge of the subject matter and help the resource
person calibrate the proceedings accordingly.
