uh, that sounds very interesting.
Right now, we mainly use OCR from djvu from Internet Archive (that means
ABBYY Finereader, which is very nice).
But ideally we could think of a "customizable" OCR software that gets
trained language per language: htat would be extremely useful for
Wiikisources.
(i can also imagine to divide, inside every language, per centuries,
because languages too changes over time ;-)

Hi,
I'm not a techie so I'm not sure to know what is OCR-as-service but you
should ask Tpt and Phe who have OCR stuff on the tool labs (to know what is
behind tools like
http://tools.wmflabs.org/phetools/ocr.php ).
