Subject and Keywords:

Abstract:

This article focuses on the analysis of practice, which allows for identification of hidden texts and signatures. The examples of subsequent handwriting researches of de­tected notes, signatures and people, on whose behalf they were made, are given. In this article there is a description of optical research of dashes, which were created by com­mon and special pens. The author formulated all practical recommendations about work­ing with research equipment, programs and creating illustrations phototable to expert testimony. There are several findings: 1 the aggressive impact on the document some­times does not preclude the successful handwriting identification of the remote notes and signatures perpetrator; 2 based on the outcome of the practice analysis, it points to the need of joining two specialties: «technical and criminalistics examination» and «forensic handwriting examination» due to the fact that practicing experts in the handwriting field often make mistakes.
