An indicator that a copy of a document has been opened can include a change in the document's status, such as a timestamp reflecting the last accessed date. Additionally, some document management systems or cloud services offer notifications or logs that show when a document has been viewed. In collaborative platforms, the user’s name may also appear as an active viewer.
A notarized copy of a document is a copy of the original document that has been certified by a notary public as a true and accurate reproduction of the original. A certified copy, on the other hand, is a copy of the original document that has been certified as a true copy by an official or legal authority such as a government agency or court clerk. Both types of copies can be used for official purposes to verify the authenticity of the original document.
A fully-executed copy is a document that has been signed by all parties. The copy is the original document but copies of it can be made.
When you do a save, the changes are applied to the document you originally opened. When you do a 'save as', you have to choose a name and a location where a copy of the document will be saved; this copy will have changes you are currently making to the document. You can then exit the document without saving, and your original document is unchanged. The copy that you 'save as' is still intact, with changes. You can also do a 'save as' without making any changes, just to have another copy of the document existing with a new name and/or location.
No. There is no rule about "everyone" getting a copy. Once it has been filed in probate it becomes a public document and anyone can get a copy.
A certified true copy and an authenticated copy are not the same, though they serve similar purposes. A certified true copy is a reproduction of a document that has been verified and confirmed as a true representation of the original by a qualified authority, often a notary public. An authenticated copy, on the other hand, typically refers to a document that has been officially verified by a government entity or a consulate to confirm its legitimacy for use in legal or official contexts.

Certified copies are copies of documents that have been certified to be accurate copies of originals. This does not mean that the original document is certified to be authentic, only that the copy is genuinely a copy of the original document. This is somewhat like a notarized copy, which is notarized by a public notary to be an authentic copy of an original.
A certified true copy is an original document, and a document that is verified against the original copy is usually a recreation of the original document, or a second document that reflects the content of the original.
The main function of a printer is to provide a physical copy of a document. The main function of a scanner is to provide a digital copy of a document. The way in which the two compare is that they provide a copy of a document.
No, neither. A facsimile is already a copy. Even if the facsimile has been accepted as a "true" representation of the original, it is still nothing more than a copy of it. A copy of a copy is not acceptable as "best evidence."
A hard copy of a document is one that is printed out. The one on the computer is called a soft copy.
A properly authenticated and notarized copy could be used. There could be some issues concerning who destroyed the original and why.
