Stereomicroscopic examinations and image capture software
Capturing the image microscopically allows the examiner to study the writing or suspect area on the document in detail. The enlarged “W” shows an attempt to copy the writing of an elderly person. The movement of the writing can be detected by the pen striations that frequently change direction as the writer draws the letter, rather than writing it naturally. |

Indented writing examinations using two electrostatic detection devices – the ESDA and the IMMED
The electrostatic device allows document examiners to locate evidence that is left on a document from another sheet of paper that had been placed on top of it as it was being written upon. For example, in one case the plaintiff claimed that an accident had occurred in 1996. In the adjacent lift, the evidence clearly shows that the year was 1998. |
