This link was given to me for online sanskrit OCR.

I don't recall if this has already been passed on to the list, but 've just tried it, pasting in some text from a Chaukhamba publication from the 1980's and it converted it to text perfectly.  It was even smart enough to join words separated by a dash at the end of lines.

I didn't see any credits on the website. Does anyone know who is responsible for this website?
