You asked if the birth certificate exhibit was only a link to a URL. It is not. You are looking at a scan of the exhibit on a computer. The judge has an actual hard copy of each page of the motion and the exhibits in his or her hands.
In Mississippi, Orly Taitz submitted a hard copy exhibit and the Mississippi Democratic Party submitted a hard copy of the same document for the Judge that they said was “more legible.”
There is no “copy of a page in a book,” What you saw in my link is a scanned copy of a motion written for the judge to read and rule on. It is up to the judge to decide the probative value of the exhibit, if any.
You're saying that the judge has a hard-copy of the image in the document you linked? Or are you saying that the judge has an actual copy of the page from the book (front and back) that was scanned in the image?
If all the judge has is a paper version of the scanned single-side page image, and not the page itself, then he is still accepting a facsimile of one side of a document as if it were the real document itself.
I'm asking if he has the unbound page from the document? I'm guessing that the answer is "no," he has the image of one side of the page from a book, and an attestation that the information on the image matches the information on some other unseen document in Hawaii's possession.
