Many times, a simple erasure of words or markings does not completely serve the requirements of an expert forger. He may make further changes to a document by replacing obliterated words or numbers with other words or numbers. A good example of this is changing the amount of a check or altering the date on a contract or will.

Even the most meticulous and gifted forgers leave behind evidence of their work. Forensic handwriting analysts visually inspect documents with the naked eye as well as with the use of a microscope. Microscopes many times disclose sure signs of forgery.
