That depends a lot on the environment. What OS will you be using?
What are you doing exactly? Are you actually reading the characters
optically or are you taking a feed from an OCR device? Are you
processing a scanned image?

It depends on the above indformation.

Not normally, but if you can find a program that can program
the microcontroller you might be able to drive it from Python.
Or if the micro has an interface that can be driven from, for example,
a serial port you may be able to do something.

We can't give specific answers without a lot more specific 
information.
