>The Internet Archive has switched to using Tesseract for all our OCR, I am so happy to hear this. It will be great to have the Indic languages that were marked as non-ocrable so far be converted to text correctly on Internet Archive.
Is there any page with instructions to do this? Can a language be specified while OCRing? eg. Better results are many times received using script/Devanagari instead of san for Sanskrit. Regarding your question about tessdata, there have only been minor changes to tessdata files but adding a tag is a good idea. I suggest you post this as a feature request in the repo.
