COUNTY INTAGLIO PRINTING PAPER SHORTAGE ENDS

As a follow-up to earlier E-Sylum articles, The Modesto Bee reports that the shortage of paper for intaglio printing of vital records has been solved. Thanks again to George Petrulakis for bringing the situation to our attention. -Editor

County of Stanislaus Vital Record paper A shortage in the paper used to print birth certificates and the like in Stanislaus County is over.

County Clerk-Recorder Lee Lundrigan announced in a news release earlier this month that her office has received banknote paper used to print certified copies of birth, death and marriage certificates. Restrictions on the number of copies people can get have been lifted, she said.

In August, the county restricted the number of certified copies it would issue after the company that printed the special paper used, Sekuworks LLC of Ohio, abruptly closed in July. California is among states that use the “intaglio” method for printing certified copies of birth, death and marriage certificates. Those states use paper with printed security features to prevent counterfeiting of vital records.

Lundrigan said the county has since found a Canadian supplier to print the banknote paper with the special security features. And the new product, she said, has more safeguards than its predecessor.

“Secure banknote paper protects your vital records against identity theft,” Lundrigan said in the release. “The new banknote paper has added security features to enhance the safety of vital records containing your personal and treasured information.”
