Can a notary back date an acknowledgement if the person who needs the notary also back dates?

A notary does not sign to acknowledge a document. A notary is a witness of the person who signed the document. He signs to say that the person who's signature appears on the document is, in fact, the person who signed it. (This is why a notary will ask to see your drivers license or other photo ID - to prove that you are who you say you are.) A notary would back date a document because the person signing the document already signed and dated it before it was handed to the notary. In this case, the notary would not have seen the person sign the document, so it is illegal for the notary to both sign and back date.

Is it all right for the notary public to just sign their name and provide a stamp imprint on the bottom of the document if there is no pre-printed notarial certificate?

No, it is not sufficient for a notary public to simply sign their name and provide a stamp imprint without a pre-printed notarial certificate. Notarial acts require a proper notarial certificate that includes specific language indicating the type of act performed, the date, and details about the signer and their identity. This ensures the legality and validity of the notarization. Without this, the notarization may be considered incomplete or invalid.
