Un-swagging, the halo could be Gibbs artifact. It happens in DSP filters at sudden changes in contrast. It is basically overshoot, like the output of a second or higher order dynamic system. The artifact is that it outputs a false thin band of dark or light around the edges of the high contrast that does not actually exist.

On a separate note, I wonder what the effects of picking apart the document for OCR would be. Maybe the process that makes a document searchable might also make some odd artifacts?

In any case, as Pyrrho said, PDF is not simply a bit map, and whoever made the PDF was probably some apparatchik who copied the form the same way they would copy any other form.

I know beans or less, just making conversation. :wave:

Guessing by the appearance of the PDF, I'm thinking the original BW scan could have been placed on top of an image of the green security paper in Illustrator, transparency effect set for "multiply" or something similar, and then printed--not saved directly--as a PDF. I'm sure that could fuel outrage among the birthers--the PDF is not in fact the "original" and has in fact been through a digital process. On a Mac, no less!

:freakout:

There probably is no original paper copy in existence. It's probably all on microfiche, which, hopefully, was scanned to digital form long ago.

I dunno. I'm getting bored.

Listen to all you communistic socialised fascistic liberals making your excuses! You know computers don't do all that stuff by itself! You're just covering your asses because you know you voted for the least American candidate and you're too afraid to admit it.

No one - NO ONE - could have foreseen this, but Secretary Kemp decided on Tuesday that Obama is indeed eligible and will remain on the ballot for the upcoming Ga. Democratic primary. I am very much looking forward to Counselor Taitz's return to regular court to contest this Kenyanistically wrongheaded ruling.

JEROME! Is this possible? Can Orly appeal to the courts to review Secretary Kemp's decision? How can that be?!

I am a little disappointed that Orly has not pursued the JUDGE MALIHI IS AN IRANIAN angle, because I was p. sure her investigation would reveal that the Iranians have been working the long con, destabilizing America by infiltrating the Georgia Office of State Administrative Hearings. Operatives within OSAH, posing as administrative law judges, hear thousands of cases for years, before issuing a highly subversive ruling affirming that the President of the United States is a natural born citizen of the United States, in accordance with the determinations of every other adjudicative body that has ruled on the fake issue. Exactly.
