ABSTRACT:
Methods and systems are provided for analyzing and assessing documents using a writing profile for documents, such as a payment instrument. A method may include providing a document to a computer system. The document may include at least one information field. Handwriting in at least one information field of the document may be compared to at least one handwriting profile representation from at least two information fields of at least one other document.
