Abstract

Manisha Mann, Mandeep Kaur Purba and Shukla SK

Sequence of strokes is the sequence in which writing strokes are placed on the paper. To analyze whether the documents such as wills, letters, contracts, etc. are genuine or not, determination of sequence of strokes becomes necessary. In the present study Stereomicroscope and Docubox Dragon were used for observation and examination of the exemplars. The sequences of strokes in the exemplars were primarily observed using Stereomicroscope and the forged exemplars were further examined using Docubox Dragon. It was observed that stereomicroscope was used for preliminary examination whereas through Docubox Dragon detailed and evident results were obtained using various light sources and filters.
