Study and Analysis of Different Anti-Counterfeiting Features in Security Printing Jobs

Security printing faces maximum challenges from counterfeiters. To prevent them, the security documents contain special anti-counterfeiting features or security features which are difficult to forge. As counterfeiters are using latest technology, it is essential to develop more improved and complex anti-counterfeiting features which are impossible to reproduce. For this, it is important to study and analyze different existing anti-counterfeiting features in various types of security documents. For this purpose, some samples of such documents (banknotes of Rs. 1000, Rs. 500, Rs. 100, Rs. 50, Rs. 20 and Rs. 10, bank cheques, Aadhaar card, voter id card, pan card) have been collected and different types of methods have been used to identify a counterfeit security document.
