This time it will take place on August 19-21, 2008 in Montreal, Queb ec. The ICFHR/IWFHR series of conferences/workshops provide a forum to researchers in the areas of on-line and off-line recognition of handwriting, pen-based interface systems for the processing of multilingual handwritten documents and forms. The program committee invites the submission of papers for inclusion in the Conference. All accepted papers will be published in the Conference proceedings, and the authors of accepted papers will be invited to present their work in the form of oral presentations or posters. All papers and presentations will be in English. 

The best papers will be selected for consideration for publication in a Special Issue on Handwriting Recognition of Pattern Recognition journal.  Further instructions will be given in due course.

Following are some topics of interest:
