Luminescent security features in or on documents are detected using a detector comprising a fibre optic light guide arranged to transmit an interrogation beam originating from a source onto a document to be tested; and a housing in which a photo-diode array is mounted to receive luminescence emitted from the document. The photo-diode array is connected to electronic circuitry for discriminating between luminescence due to a security feature and other luminescence emitted by the document and for determining that a security feature has been detected.
