Yeah, I was looking around a bit to see if I could find a text in one of the relevant languages but bumped into the same problem (Hindi for example).
This does not exclude such languages from Voynichese candidates since we'd be dealing with a transcription effort, so changes in spelling custom can occur. It just makes it hard to find a suitable text for testing.
