Devanagari - there's no method known to me. This is still an unresolved issue, no-one has managed to successfully code a program for Devanagari OCR.
Sanskrit - I take it that you mean transliteration - most of the time that is also scanned with limited success, and you have to more than fix half of the diacritics manually. I just write manually whatever I need.

When you scan, you scan, and you change the fonts later in MS Word or wherever as you prefer.

Use Adobe Acrobat. There are also some free programs for producing PDF at
