2.
3.

special characters éèà...  not recognized correctly

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
last version - windows

Please provide any additional information below.
the bug could be corrected in tesseractenginewrapper.cpp :

static wchar_t *make_unicode_string(const char *utf8)
{
  int size = 0, out_index = 0;
  wchar_t *out;

  /* first calculate the size of the target string */
  int used = 0;
  int utf8_len = strlen(utf8);
  while (used < utf8_len) {
    int step = UNICHAR::utf8_step(utf8 + used);
    if (step == 0)
      break;
    used += step;
    ++size;
  }

  out = (wchar_t *) malloc((size + 1) * sizeof(wchar_t));
  if (out == NULL)
      return NULL;

  /* now convert to Unicode */

    if (step == 0)
      break;
    UNICHAR ch(utf8 + used, step);
    out[out_index++] = ch.first_uni();
    used += step;
  }
  out[out_index] = 0;

  return out;

It's better to use API conversion functions, if possible, as follows:

/**
 *  Converts UTF-8 to Unicode.
 *
 * @param str     Source string in UTF-8 encoding
 * @return        Unicode string
 */
public String^ ConvertUTF8(String^ str)
{ 
    array<Byte>^ aBytes = Encoding::Default->GetBytes(str);
    return Encoding::UTF8->GetString(aBytes);
}

Hello,
I tried but it did not get the good values...
That's why I took the piece of code for the transformation elsewhere in link 
with the tesseract project.

It's probably because of the ending null character. .NET string does not need 
it, I think.

I used tesseract3.dll in my web service application. When I publish web site, a 
error appeared "The specified module could not be found (Exception from HRESULT 
0x8007007E)"
Please help me to resolve this problem.

You've to be sure that the Leptonica dll's are in your directory : lept*.dll
