The feature extraction method is proposed for Degraded Devnagari script scan document by considering the structure of Devnagari script .We have also consider the irregularities of Devnagari writing style ,Yuktaksha and numbers.We are not removing shirorekha. It separates the image text documents into lines, words and characters Segmentation of touching or fused characters of Devanagari script is sometimes difficult due to interline space or overlapping and noise. The algorithmic rule used here is for segmentation of amalgamate Devanagari characters into its constituent partial or full consonants. In our proposed technique, Image Binarzation for degraded document images has being use Region based segmentation. Firstly, an RGB image convert into gray image then image filtering can be done on the basis of Wiener Filtering and Gaussian filter..
