I don’t know. But the image that is on the paper obviously is rolled on the left side. How does that fit into the equation? Do they scan from a book and print it on the paper that already has a background on it? Or is it printed at the same time as the image. We need a unbiased expert to examine the original. Trump has the resources to get that done. Leave it to obumber to half ass answer the question.

Last week, Hawaii suddenly stopped allowing folks to obtain their Long-Form BC.

Are they worried that other BC’s, floating around town, would allow us to compare with Omoslem’s BC (and spot problems)?

The archival process, for most counties, went along these lines... Storage of original documents has always been a problem for counties. Not only do you have issues with paper quality and pests, it's also freakin’ huge to store, and took far too long to get information to handle a request. Counties paid companies, or sometimes did it in house, to photograph and convert to microfiche vital records like this one.

But microfiche itself presented whole new problems in the manner of storage and even quicker solutions were presented, such as digitalizing the microfiche library and putting it in computer databases. Now long form birth certificates are a couple clicks away.

Once printed, stamped and dated, these documents can then be transmitted in electronic format from scanning printers that can convert a document to PDF for sending electronically. And this really appears to be pretty standard everywhere I've been (counties of 600,000+ people.)

The methodology that scanning copiers use to not only create PDFs, but also in storing documents for multiple printings breaks the image up into elements, and those elements are combined to make the PDF or the print. You can also specify a background image to go into the PDF - naturally you wouldn't have it in the original document, as that could affect the print onto the security paper.

This is his real long form birth certificate. Kudos to Trump to extract that which no one else could get him to cough up. And it does absolutely nothing to settle the question if Obama’s a naturally born citizen or not, aside from providing a legal record that his mother was under 25 at the time of his birth, and a legal establishment of his father. It does nothing to establish his father's US citizenship, a requirement for a naturally born citizen.

I honestly think that this is one of those cases where success in the past is affecting people's viewpoints. Yes, CBS faked a document. Continued declarations that this is a fake will just result in the registrar in Hawaii to post the ‘original’ that was scanned in a frame on the wall in their lobby. It is becoming a distraction whereas for the first time, Obama has provided the same type of documents that we're required to provide to get even welfare, much less the presidency. Now to go after those school records and immigration records for his father.
