Portuguese term or phrase: autenticada com o selo branco em uso nesta Escola
"mandei passar a presente certidão que vai por mim assinada e autenticada com o selo branco em uso nesta escola."

pensei em "(which is signed by me and) bears the embossing seal in use at this School"...
Alguém tem uma alternativa melhor? Obrigada!

Explanation:
"selo branco" should be in the ProZ glossary (which I admit I don't know how to access) because I answered this same term question within the past several months and it was accepted.

bears the seal of this school


Explanation:
It would have to be "embossed" rather than "embossing", but "embossed" would actually be understood in English and would sound rather strange if included.

Boa sorte.

embossed seal


Explanation:
Embossed seal is the terminology used in British official documents. The Americans often use 'embossing'.
Suggestion: "Given under my hand and the seal of this office" could be an alternative to 'signed by me...".
