Fontgate

Calibri is a nice font to use for writing documents, academic and other.

It was released in 2007.

Fake documents which used the Calibri font and dated before 2007 can be detected using font detection apps.

In checking whether documents have been fabricated and therefore are fakes, it is necessary to also check the font(s) used in creating such document(s).

Understanding fonts and keeping track of fonts development should expand beyond the realms of graphic artists and photographers. Court writers, document archivists, and university records officers must understand fonts, in order to be able to detect fake documents.
