Abstract
This paper proposes the use of CAPTCHAs for digitization of ancient scriptures available in the form of old handwritten as well as printed manuscripts. Two different approaches have been proposed in this paper, for digitization of these two forms of scriptures. The rare collection of these manuscripts will be lost, if not attended and preserved for future generations. Digitization is one such method to preserve our valuable heritage.
