Puzzling inconsistencies

Somebody sent the purported document photographed on Kodak Tri-X T-5063 film. Tri-X is black-and-whilte film.

The first page of the document is shown as a color image:

Can you say "WTF?" I did.

Howe mentions in passing that she was "key stroking" the pages, an infelicitous choice of words that I assume means that she transcribed the document, and that all of those images of pages on the page are from the transcript rather than the original. This raises more questions, because she went to an awful lot of trouble to do elaborate reproductions of tables and filled-out forms, not to mention dipping into color and some novelty fonts if she faked the front page too. Why go to all that trouble to format a transcript so elaborately, when she had photos of the original?
