Questioned Documents

The American Academy of Forensic Sciences Questioned Documents section: the examination of handwriting, printing, ink, paper and other document features to determine authenticity or authorship, extended here to forensic linguistics, the closely related analysis of an author's word choice, syntax and style to establish or challenge authorship of a text. Belongs here: disciplines examining the authorship or authenticity of written or printed material. Does not belong here: digital data and media, grouped under Digital and Multimedia Sciences, even when the questioned material is stored or transmitted electronically rather than on paper.
