lol!Bound and sealed sounds ok but you get the impression the document has been closed as if it was a box!
agree Angela Greenfield : to avoid saying "sealed" in formal English they say "the seal is affixed to the document": Document bound and seal affixed. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=active&rls=com.micro...

What is a Seal?
The words "seal" and "signature" both derive from signum – the Latin word for "sign." A seal is a pictorial sign that signifies and identifies an individual or group. (A "signet" ring worn on the finger has a small seal or one's initials.)

Seals have been used since the dawn of civilization, when bundles of trade goods were sealed with tags that carried an impression of the owner's mark. For the past 6,000 years, cultures old and new have used seals to indicate ownership, for security reasons, and to formalize contracts and agreements.
