Where to place the stamp for LPA

I knew I will have several family LPA to make copies of so I bought a stamp that says “I certify this is a true and complete copy of the corresponding page of the original lasting power of attorney. Signature:.............. Date:..............." over 6 lines. It's quite a big stamp (7 x 3.5 cm) and I do not know where to place it on the LPA pages. There doesn't seem to be enough room on the pages. The gov.uk website says to write on the bottom of every page (https://www.gov.uk/power-of-attorney/certify). There's just about enough room if I write small, but not enough room to use the stamp unless I stamp over text. I would have to be careful not to stamp over the official stamp. How have you done it? How do solicitors do it? TIA

    Smaller stamps and anywhere there's a space to put it is the way I used to do it.
