Thank you ShreeDevi for both moheb's link and the one below.
The current one uses Tesseract 3 and according to the author:
"Recognition quality of Coptic texts containing old fonts will be very poor, depending on the trained data."

I will get in contact with him to see if we can use the other link you provided
https://github.com/OCR-D/ocrd-train
To train Tesseract 4.00

Thank you very much

See http://www.moheb.de/ocr.html

It provides a traineddata file for Coptic for use with tesseract version 3.

    Hi,
    I belong to a group who study an old Egyptian writing system
    called "Coptic".
    It's based mostly on Greek (with some variation).

    Big majority of books written in Coptic where during the last
    century and were mostly the same [typewriter] font.
    Here is a sample picture:

    And sample book:
    https://archive.org/download/pistissophiaopu00petegoog
    <https://archive.org/download/pistissophiaopu00petegoog>

    We need to add Coptic to languages supported by Tesseract but not
    sure how.
    I tried following this document
    https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/TrainingTesseract-4.00
    <https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/TrainingTesseract-4.00>
    but it's very difficult to understand.

    We need someone help us with the initial setup so that we can
    dedicate our man power to training the system.
    We are none profit group so we are hoping for free help but we
    would also consider paid help since the alternative is hundreds of
    hours of man labor to digitalize just few books.

    Thanks everyone for contributing to this awesome project
