I have the following code for my htaccess but it does not seems to put in cache that file :

# MOD_DEFLATE COMPRESSION

#ne pas mettre en cache si ces fichiers le sont déjà

Header unset Cache-Control
</FilesMatch>
</IfModule>
# END Cache-Control Headers

If you actually have the fontawesome fonts on your server you can cache them in the .htaccess file like so;

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
  Header set cache-control: public
  ExpiresActive on

  ExpiresByType font/ttf      "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType font/woff     "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType image/svg+xml "access plus 1 month"
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
  <FilesMatch "\.(ttf|otf|eot|svg)$" >
    SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
  </FilesMatch>
</IfModule>
