In this work, we present a new tool for the font optical recognition. This tool is based on the use of the fractal geometry. We used two techniques for obtaining two parameters, they allowed the extraction of the global textures characteristics. These characteristics are expressed in a parametric form. The vision aspect is held in consideration, since it makes it possible to differentiate one font of another. Experiments show the importance of the proposed approach.
