Especially do these help with my understanding:
["There are also no requirements as to how a journal should be set up . . .
Re: certificates... Essentially the same, i.e. law only says what's required. As for restrictions, that only addresses the certificate itself, not the optional sect."]
So, essentially you can set up (create) your format for taking the acknowledgment or jurat, etc. within bounds of legal specifics; but if one was to MOVE the 'Optional' portion to Top from bottom or v-v, I can't help but wonder if it would cause a problem amongst lawmakers who might feel that wording BEFORE the certificate language is <Part of the cert>
(and, thus Must comply & should not be changed) whereas the latter with concluding text/comments is considered free-for-all!
Obviously this would have a bearing on the format I'd choose 
(This applies to journal, as well. Place a border around your individual entries to indicate same signer and location.)
