    Area of Science:

    • Forensic Science
    • Materials Science
    • Criminalistics

    Context:

    • Mixed script analysis is a critical but under-investigated area in criminalistics.
    • Existing literature describes mixed scripts but lacks systematic investigation.
    • Forensic document examination requires robust methods for analyzing diverse script types.

    Purpose:

    • To systematically analyze mixed scripts produced by various instruments.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) in differentiating script types.
    • To emphasize the importance of SEM in mixed script investigations.

    Summary:

    • This research conducted a systematic analysis of mixed scripts generated by multiple writing instruments, including pencil, ink, ballpoint pen, felt-tip pen, copied scripts, and typewriters.
