Well, the wording in the law is a bit troubling.

There's no law against copying it, and there are only laws against false identification.

Many places in the UFA there is reference to the piece of paper that helps to prove licensure, but they just call it the license, even though a license is really just a grant from the state. Consider the following:

You get arrested for carrying without a license because you have a concealed firearm and can't produce the associated paper, even though you have it at home. You go to court and produce it, and it is found to be a valid piece of paper indicated licensure. You're then found not guilty.

If the license was the piece of paper, then you'd be guilty, because you didn't have it at the time of arrest.

Therefore, the license isn't really the piece of paper, and presenting a facsimile representation, supposing your original is valid and you do not intend to deceive, would not be against the law and should be valid evidence of licensure.
