If you read the letter again. It is saying that the standard procedure is to issue computer generated copies, however they have made an exception for the president.
That is my understanding of what has been said in the letter.
Here is the quote:
"Through that authority, in recognition of your status as President of the United States, I am making an exception to current departmental policy which is to issue a computer-generated certified copy"
So they made an exception to the computer-generated procedure.
So that means the document was not computer generated but photocopied.edit on 1-5-2011 by ZeroPointEnergy because: (no reason given)

I'm believing, based on the video posted that there were artifacts in the image that indicate it was tampered with. The next question that comes to my mind is how the modification of the text specified in the video could lead to hiding some secret. For instance, The field on the form for occupation. The video shows the letters "Non" of the word "None" were inserted. What three characters could make up a word that they want to hide?
Another question is the date. The stamped date that was allegedly inserted matches the handwritten date that was not.
All in all, it doesnt make sense. Any ideas?

Regarding the layers again, because it was argued my PDF didn't have "groups"... for fun I took the "new" birth certificate that is floating around and I printed it out, then scanned it straight into Adobe PDF. Then without making a single change, I opened it in Illustrator:
ZOMG! GROUPS! AND LAYERS!
Can we put this one to rest now, please? This ridiculous argument is being repeated all over ATS as gospel, when it is just a misunderstanding of how Illustrator works.
