An embosser is not the legal notary seal in some states. I know in California and Arizona you MUST use an ink seal otherwise the notarization is not valid...

The embosser. I swear by it. Unfortunately, not everyone finds them convenient.

Carmen, I've been doing signings for about 6 months now and something has come up that I want to bounce off of someone!

My problem is with my notary stamp. I use a "self-inking" stamp purchased through NNA's vendor. Occasionally, if I don't use just the right pressure, the imprint comes out either slightly blurry or not inked uniformly across the image. It's legible but not perfect. The flipside is if I press too hard or long I get too much ink on the paper and it "bleeds" a little, again making the image less than perfect! Normally, I wait until I get home to actually do my notary completion/stamp so that I can take my time and make sure that I don't miss anything. I've found that If I try to do it in the "flow" at the signing I can't pay enough attention to the borrowers to make sure that I get them to do their part correctly. I've just had a title company come back to me for an acknowledgement. I don't remember that specific imprint precicely but they said it was because the border around the stamp was not complete. They also started out by asking for a "blank" acknowledgement because they said the lender didn't specify which form was actually in question. They ended up confirming that it was the DOT so I executed their acknowledgement and tied it to the DOT specifically. I try to make sure (especially on the DOT) that all of my stamps are clear. Is anyone else having the same problem? Is there another style of stamp that is more reliable?
