HOWEVER, now that they are requiring boarding passes, it is a little more difficult. What I have had to do is use the online-checking to print out a boarding pass to Adobe Acrobat, save it as a PDF, then delete name, date, and city-specific info and replace with blank fields for me to fill in with the correct formatting. Since the TSA does not scan the boarding pass, but rather check to make sure the city and date is right (and some places match the name to the photo ID) getting past security wouldn't seem that difficult. NOTE: I have not yet tried the latter method yet, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I would seriously advocate never forging a web check in/boarding pass. If the TSA caught you doing this I'm sure you would be immediately under suspicion as a terrorist, and they would probably have every reason to make your life very uncomfortable both then and in the future.
