Working with Optical Character Recognition for the printed Gurmukhi Script is a challenging task due to the large number of characters, the sophisticated ways in which they combine, and the complicated result. This paper describes a fast and easy to implement algorithm for detection of bold and italic character in Gurmukhi Script. The algorithm works without recognition of actual character and detects the font style (bold or italic) in the way of weight and slope. The procedure of identification and classification of bold and italic character can be used to improve character recognition. This simple and fast algorithm gives high accuracy. Keywords - OCR, Noice, Pixel, Font type phase, Binarization. I. INTRODUCTION India is a multi-lingual country with 23 recognized official languages. Development of optical character recognition for Indian script is an active area of research today. Gurmukhi script is used primarily for the Punjabi language which is the world's 14th most widely spoken language. Gurmukhi script presents great challenges to the detection of font type phase due to the large number of characters, the sophisticated ways in which they combine, and the complicated result. The unstructured manner in which popular fonts are designed makes the process more complicated. A typeface defines the shape of the character (e.g. Arial is a typeface). A font is essentially the design for a set of characters. It's the combination of typeface and design characteristics such as size, pitch and spacing. The height of characters in a font is measured in points, each point being approximately 1/72 inch. The width is measured by pitch, which refers to how many characters can fit in an inch. Common pitch values are 10 and 12. Within the Arial typeface there are many fonts to choose from different sizes and styles (e.g., italic, bold and so on). For example Arial italic 12-point is a font. A font is a particular instantiation of a typeface design. This paper presents a method for document processing, which performs identification of font-style (bold and italic) of a character belonging to a subset of the existing fonts of Gurmukhi script. The detection of the font-style of the document words can be used for classification of documents, and can also be used to improve the character recognition process. II. CHARACTERISTICS OF GURMUKHI SCRIPT Gurmukhi script is used primarily for the Punjabi language which is the world's 14th most widely spoken language. Some of the properties of the Gurmukhi script are:
