Abstract
Line and word segmentation is one of the important step of OCR systems. For the identification of printed characters of non-Indian languages like English, Japanese, Chinese Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems have been effectively developed. For Indian languages, efforts are on the way for the development of efficient OCR systems, mainly for Kannada, one of the popular South Indian language . In this paper we have proposed a robust method for extraction of individual text lines for printed kannada documents based on the efficient segmentation methodologies such as morphology operations based projection profile,horizontal projection profile and bounding box.
