In a multi-lingual country like India, script segmentation or script separation of the multi-script in an image of a document page is of primary importance for a script identification system.For script segmentation of such a document page, it is necessary to segment multi script forms before running individual OCR of the script.In this paper we present a technique for script segmentation of the individual text line for printed in Indian language document.Our line wise script segmentation approach is Horizontal Projection Profile based script segmentation.A prototype of the system has been tested on printed Indian language lines of script and an average accuracy of 99% has been achieved.
