Character segmentation is current topic of discussion for today’s research work. Because of its importance in recognition of characters. It is the most basic step in the process of recognition of characters But it is not an easy job to separate characters from words specially in handwritten text because writing styles vary from person to person. Not only this there are other so many problems associated with it like overlapping of characters, touching of characters, broken characters, skewed characters. Besides that there is also the concept of upper zone, lower zone and middle zone.
