We provide forensic examination of laminated documents to assess whether a document exhibits characteristics consistent with an original printed document or a colour photocopy. The examination focuses on identifying printing characteristics, reproduction artefacts, image quality, text formation, and other relevant features that may help distinguish an original document from a reproduced copy.
Our examination may involve the assessment of printing patterns, colour (CMYK) dots, text and image characteristics, alignment, background details, signatures, stamps, and other document features. Appropriate magnification, specialized lighting, and optical examination techniques may be used, depending on the nature and condition of the submitted document.
Lamination can restrict access to certain underlying features; therefore, the examination is conducted within the limitations of the available material. The findings are documented in a forensic examination report, indicating the observed characteristics and the extent to which they support an assessment of whether the document is an original or a colour photocopy.
