If we succeeded in Sanskrit(Deveanagari script) which is mother lang of Indic no doubt tesseract 3.01 should work. I have tested with Tamil which has dependent vowels identical to Bengali as well as Kannada, Telugu. Only problem is with output accuracy - which can be solved for, time being,with help of post processor , In FreeOCR latest version 4.1(July10) has post processor developed by the Ralph I found latest version tesseract.exe will work with freeOCR till today. Even vietOCR developed by Quan has post processsor feature which works for indic apart from viet.
