Out of  curiosity,  simply tested la-fontfile.tif. without installing patch file . just finished. output was correct without any problms.
Now as a test, I will start to train with bmp and tif  of complete set of Kannada characters which is complex srcipt.  and then try with another lang:viz Telugu which is also complex script(eventhough I don't know lang but can read script which is similar to kannada ).

I am  extremely thankful to Ray for his genius modified codes as a special case for Kannada script which very complex.  As such TesseractOCR for Kannada is a  first OCR developed in the world.
 
Really, I must thanks 
DavidStruthers < struthe...@googlemail.com> for his
genius bbtesseract - without it, would have more difficulty to boxing complex script of  non-English language like Kannada.
