You can see if they write in cursive or print, if they connect some of their letters, or where they cross their t's. Handwriting analysis can get very specific. Someone might have breaks in certain letters. They may also slant their writing one way or the other. Handwriting can be very very important to solving crimes.

Document analysis is basically triyng to find out if someone altered a document. This could get very specific too. They might not use the right type of paper for a certain document or they might just change a couple of words in a document. People try to alter checks, wills, and other types of legal documents. People might try to change a name on the check so that they could get the money. They could also do this sort of thing with a will.
