In imperial China, clerks used an abbreviated, highly cursive form of Chinese characters to record court proceedings and criminal confessions. These records were used to create more formal transcripts. One cornerstone of imperial court proceedings was that all confessions had to be acknowledged by the accused's signature, personal seal, or thumbprint, requiring fast writing.[citation needed] Versions of this technique survived in clerical professions into the modern day and, influenced by Western shorthand methods, some new methods were invented.[1][2][3][4]
