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 comprises at least one information field. Writing in at least one information field of the document may be compared to at least two writing profile representations from at least one information field of at least one other document.
