Dear Swaroop, I appreciate for detailed information. .I like to test on LiveCD of ubuntu (not installed on machine) Will you elaborate step by step to install baraha type software . First I shall download software from the website (website address please) on the HDD in Windows. Then with help of LiveCD I shall install the same and run test. I trust linux baraha software will work just like in Windows. I shall feedback. I should have done long back but delayed due to concentration on generating datafiles of Kannada (kannada is very complex script) and testing by using TesseractOCR - which 90% improved. .
