Abstract
Script segmentation is an essential and preprocessing task for any OCR system. Bangla is one of the most popular scripts in the world. Since segmentation effects the recognition process, accurate and proper segmentation is necessary to implement Bangla OCR. Many works have been done for both handwritten and printed Bangla text. This paper presents the segmentation process of different Bangla modifiers from printed Bangla words.
