In my opinion this is irrefutable evdience of the document being fake. Care to explain any other reason the same scanned document would have more than one pixel size? The difference between the two pixel sizes is stagering, look at the big pixels that make up the entire image, except for the black text which has much smaller pixels. Clearly whoever made this document didn't bother to make sure the font size matched the pixelation of the base image.
Not to mention that several letters are pixel for pixel identical. This shouldn't happen even if a type writer is used, the ink would absord a bit differently for each letter and when scanned each letter would not be 100% identical pixel for pixel.edit on 13-5-2011 by zaintdead because: (no reason given)

Showing that the PDF was created in layers is rather damning since the WH claimed the document was scanned. If it was scanned, it wouldn't have layers. Then upon reviewing the layers, obvious tampering is shown to have occurred.
So for those of you saying this is old news, do you believe these discrepancies are valid in determining the BC fake or do you believe the BC is genuine?

sketchy and that doesn't debunk the identical B's pixel for pixel. Not to mention that converting some areas to bitmap using scanner software should not just give you black text, some of the surrounding white halo and paper gradient should also be smaller pixel if that were the case.edit on 13-5-2011 by zaintdead because: (no reason given)

Notice how the first 3 letters are a different color? They are their own layer. Also look at the bottom of the N & n, that is an awfully clean line, almost like they where clipped or cropped.

He said the layers cited by doubters are evidence of the use of common, off-the-shelf scanning software — not evidence of a forgery. “I have seen a lot of illustrator documents that come from photos and contain those kind of clippings—and it looks exactly like this,” he said.
Tremblay explained that the scanner optical character recognition (OCR) software attempts to translate characters or words in a photograph into text. He said the layers cited by the doubters shows that software at work – and nothing more.
