Generally in examination of handwriting, the details of handwriting characteristic features are examined in order to ascertain the authorship. In disguised writing the writer tries to hide his own handwriting features and try to portray a different type of writing style. Doing this act he/she becomes conscious to write the text content or signature on paper. As we know that writing is an outcome of neuromuscular coordination of brain to hand, so it is very difficult to do so. The document examiner in such cases of
disguised writing is faced with the challenge of recognizing the act of disguise as well as to deeply examine and find out the inconspicuous writing features left by the writer in order to fix authorship. However many of the cases related with examination of disguised writing were examined and opined by the authors. The objective of this paper is to examine the characteristic features of disguised writing. The detailed study of cases related with disguised writing will be discussed.
