  text: The detection of counterfeit in printed documents is currently based mainly
    on built-in security features or on human expertise. We propose a classification
    system that supports non-expert users to distinguish original documents from PC-made
    forgeries by analyzing the printing technique used. Each letter in a document
    is classified using a support vector machine that has been trained to distinguish
    laser from inkjet printouts. A color-coded visualization helps the user to interpret
    the per-letter classification results
