Digitized handwritten documents are a colossal source of information. Many communities use handwritten records like cultural heritage collections, judicial records, and modern journals to gather information. Many of these documents still remain to be made search-friendly. This is where handwritten search tools come in handy to make the textual content of these documents easily accessible. However, there is a lack of these search tools in digital libraries even today. For Latin scripts, document retrieval demonstrations are primarily experimental. Such demonstrations rely on transcribed pages from the document collection to make it retrievable. However, due to the vast number of collections, there is a need for annotation-free approaches to develop retrieval solutions.
