Can you please go to this Whitehouse.gov link and download the PDF and then open the pdf in Adobe Illustrator? Can you then tell us if it has 10 layers as is being reported by some folks in the interwebz? What happens if you remove the layers?

Anyone? This could be a cool experiment!

You guys know that scanned images can contain multiple elements if the scanner and software have OCR capabilities and it is left on, right? So the person working the scanner probably left that turned on when the image was scanned as a PDF and not a pure bitmap or TIFF image (very likely). Or, the original image could have been a negative and the birth certificate was aesthetically altered to make it readable (less likely). Or it could be a fake entirely (least likely).

The presence of "layers" or other image elements do not prove or disprove anything.
