A printed or exported copy can be checked against the server later. Phase 9 adds the Admin screen that checks a copy.

To answer: keep; who should be able to run the check.


Plan reference: Q37 in docs/PLAN.md (open questions). Answer here; the build takes the default until then.

More detail, since you asked.

Every printed or exported page carries a controlled-copy stamp with a short code. The code is signed with a key only the server has. Later, if someone hands you a paper copy or a PDF (for example from a customer or an auditor), you can type the code or upload the PDF on the "Stamp check" screen, and Packet Station says whether it is a genuine copy, who printed it and when, or that it was never printed by Packet Station.

Today only Admin has the Stamp check screen.

The question: who should be able to run the check? Admin only, or also Q.C. and Clerical?
