Who the fuck CARES!
I just examined the PDF in Illustrator and there are a least a dozen clipping paths (which have been grouped into at least 9 groups), reminiscent of having used a layered Photoshop file to create the paths to begin with (was likely exported from PS to the PDF file we all have). The very fact there is even a single clipping path screams tampering so loudly it's pretty much laughable, nevermind there are a lot of them which are then grouped haha...and will surely add fuel to the whole Birther controversy.
When you take a photograph or make a scan there is not a single clipping path. Someone took time to create the paths, whether as a result of a layered Photoshop document while building the fake document, or having separating an original flattened photo/scan into a layer/pathed PDF based on the various elements. Very odd.
Whatever CIA image manipulator created this work of art should be fired lol.
Apparently you need Adobe Illustrator, not Photoshop.does anyone have original whitehouse PDF? I downloaded one opened in photoshop and I only see one layer. Did they fix the file or something? By the way there is a photo of the real piece of paper out there too. It looks legit. I think that there was just some kind of weird scanning technique used. I was gonna open it up here at home to see but the link I got from whitehouse.org now seems to be fixed in that there is only one layer. I'd like to take a look for myself.
Doesn't Adobe acrobat automatically create layers as a result of its text recognition capabilities? It has to separate out the text from graphics somehow. And I know it does that ---- That lib may be on to something --- Just a thought.

"I just checked the official web site for Kapiolani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital and according to the information there, the name of the hospital at the time of his birth should have been Kauikeolani Children's Hospital. According to the web site the name didn't change to Kapiolani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital until Kauikeolani Children's Hospital merged with Kapi‘olani Maternity Home in 1978. So how could his official long form birth certificate that was generated in 1961 have the name of the hospital that wasn't created until 1978?"
Plenty of vids on YouTube on the Illustrator Clipping Mask. Just one:
For the probably just handful of curious still reading this thread, I would like to direct your attention to one started by Zatch. Seems even that conservative icon the National Review is debunking the "layers" theory.

Yeah. Based on the "OCR" theory. But why would you do OCR on a 1 page birth certificate?
