Legal limitations
Colour reproductions of certain documents are illegal and may result

a guide rather than a complete listing of every possible prohibition. In
case of doubt, we suggest that you check with counsel as to any
particular questionable documents.
The following are examples of documents which should not be
copied:
■ Paper money
■ Bonds or other certificates of indebtedness
■ Certificates of Deposit
■ Armed Forces Service or Draft papers.
■ Passports

■ Immigration Papers
■ Welfare documents.
■ Cheques or Drafts drawn by Governmental Agencies.
■ Identification Documents, badges or insignias.

Copyrighted works cannot be copied. Sections of a copyrighted work
can be copied for ‘fair use.’ Multiple copies would indicate improper
use.
Works of art should be considered the equivalent of copyrighted
works.
