For what it is worth, i just tried it on the same memo, but from the USA today version. No crumple marks.

Also, address is not blacked out..

All 4 CBS memos show the same crumple pattern, but none of them show it nearly as much as the may 4th memo. I would conclude that the source papers used to create the PDF files from CBS were all distressed from the same cause, probably while in a stack with the May 4th memo on top.

Also, every single memo from the USA Today PDF file is lacking ANY sign of crumpling. This leads to these possibilities:

- there is more than one set of copies being passed around and CBS & USA Today got different copies, perhaps from different sources

- CBS and USA Today got the same source materials, but USA Today cleaned their scan before creating the PDF. (Adjusting brightness/contrast can remove the crumple)

- CBS and USA Today got the same source materials, but CBS added the crumpling

I'll look into this more after I get some sleep, unless someone beats me to it.
