Tamil's distinct script, handled

Tamil uses a compact alphabet whose consonant-vowel combinations are written with markers before, after and around the base letter — and several look-alike curves that trip generic engines. Tamil-aware recognition reads them correctly.

From certificates to classics

TN government certificates and forms, school and college records, Tamil books and magazines, temple and family records — printed Tamil digitizes cleanly; older worn prints benefit from the sharpest scan you can make.
