Prominent Fogblower “Reality Check” is doing a major “happy dance” over NBC’s claimed findings and today he put up his own blog post (offensive Obot snark alert) which does, at least, include basic instructions on how to try to replicate NBC’s replication at home:

Begin REALITY CHECK blog excerpt:
You too can do this at home!
Well not exactly, unless you happen to have a Xerox WorkCentre sitting in the basement. Seriously, many offices have them. After reading some of NBC’s early postings on this I noticed that one of the office machines where I work was a Xerox 7535 WorkCentre.
I did my own test scans on the Xerox WorkCentre 7535. I printed copies of the LFBC then scanned them to email. I used the default settings for scanning to email – 300 dpi, color, and with the Edge Erase feature set at 0.1” all around. I downloaded an older version of Adobe Illustrator and opened the PDF. My jaw dropped. What I saw were almost identical layers to the ones in the White House LFBC. It was astounding.
I sent my file to NBC and he ran it through Preview and saved it as a PDF. Preview added the top level clipping mask that is seen in the White House LFBC.
My office doesn’t have a Xerox but I would like do verify the results. What can I do?
If you do not have access to a Xerox WorkCentre try asking a friend if their office has one. Of course explaining what you want them to do might raise some eyebrows. Another option is to try one of the big office supply outlets like OfficeMax, Office Depot or Staples. They sometimes have these machines available to the public for copying and scanning. You could either email yourself a copy or save it to a thumb drive. You can download an older version of Adobe Illustrator CS2 for free here or download a limited trial version of the latest version from Adobe.
If you do not have any access to the Xerox WorkCentre I am posting the PDF files here so that you can at least inspect them and run you own tests in Illustrator or other software.
This is the output of the Xerox 7535 scan of the printout of the LFBC:

Anything coming from those lying clowns including NBC say are always in the opposite.
This is the output of the Xerox 7535 scan of the printout of the LFBC:
Nope OBots. Tsk tsk lying again. I saw the image being built from top to bottom, as sequentially, as the image bits were being added to the image from obscure to a higher resolution. No duplication here.
I did not see the base image or background being built first with the numerous rectangular white boxes that would be filled in with many distinct layers of data as the White House, Obama birf certificate so clearly showed.
Epic failure OBots.
OK,
This is a massive FAIL with a capital F.
‘The same as the document posted at the WH’?
Hardly, The pdf supposedly (and maybe truely generated) by a Xerox machine FAILED the very first test I applied to it.
Massively failed. Completely failed it.
This is a giant distraction. It is a giant lie. It is criminal fraud.
