Abstract :
This paper presents some research work that has been undertaken in the area of software tools for forensic document analysis. The purpose of research into this area is to study the methods used by human experts in the forensic analysis and examination of questioned hand-written documents and to formulate computer tools to assist in this task. The computer tools needed will require image processing and pattern recognition techniques
