Thanks for clarifying that, Polarik.
First of all, I have never identified myself as a "forensics expert" on my Affidavits as there is no need to do so. There is no formal field known as "document image forensics," and therefore, no such thing as a "certified expert in document image forensics."
Are your affidavits being used in any of the pending litigation?
There's a well established field called Questionable Documents (or is it "questioned?"), for which there are a couple widely recognized certifications, but I believe its focus is still largely on hard copy, handwriting analysis, etc. The type of analysis at hand would probably be best described as a hybrid of QD and digital image forensics, which also has a lot of overlap with the forensic video field.
What I was saying by my comment is that "Forensics" is not synonymous with "CSI"...
Amen.

If i hear of anything, I'll let you know.
