      ab: In this article, a form of the letter spotting-method is used on a large set of handwritten documents in order to identify those that contain script of similar execution. The point of departure for the investigation is the mediaeval Swedish manuscript Codex Holmiensis D 3. The main scribe of this manuscript has yet not been identified in other documents. The current attempt aims at localizing other documents that display a large degree of similarity in the characteristics of the script, as possible candidates for being produced by the same scribal hand. In the letter spotting process, a set of 'g':s, 'h':s and 'k':s have been selected as templates, and a search has been made for close matches among the mediaeval Swedish charters. The search resulted in a number of charters that displayed great similarities with the manuscript D 3. The method thus proofed to be a very efficient sorting tool, localizing similar script samples.
