“Actually, it is a problem and here's why. In order for it to be copied onto security paper the fields on the security paper would have to match exactly to the fields used on the typed 1961 form version (assuming one exists). “

You're assuming the security paper has the form pre-printed, which isn't necessarily a good assumption. You can buy blank security paper, as for checks, for example, with nothing pre-printed, or to fit certain templates for specific programs that print checks, like QuickBooks, etc. It's easier to get now than it was a decade ago when I bought my last pack of 3-to-a-page check printing paper. Had to go with the generic paper as no one made it for MS Money AND at the same time affordably cheap. There were LOTS of options for Quicken, and others, though.

If I dug through my boxes of old stuff, I've got 2/3rds or so of that last package, and could probably print my own “birth certificate” on it. Only problem would be that I bought pre-perforated paper...

Thanks for explaining that; I didn't realize he was being that dense. (Modern security paper pre-printed with a decades-old form which is conveniently skewed to match the inevitable paper bend? THAT is what he meant? Gack.)
