but I suspect that those markings only show up on a photocopy of the document, resulting from watermark protection

Correct. ;-)

So, would it be reasonable to presume that a similar document issued by HI would have similar protection? Did something like the "VoidVoidVoidVoid" show up on the "photocopies" of the "Obama" "LFBC" handed out by the WH last April? I can't recall having seen such.

Anyone have a recent vital record issued by HI that this test could be performed on? Inquiring minds want to know.
