Original document or cetified copy? Post ITA

[_Leandro_]

CIC says "If a supporting document is in a language other than English or French, the applicant must provide IRCC with:

the English or French translation; and
an affidavit from the person who completed the translations; and
a certified photocopy of the original document."

I was thinking of uploading the original document and the translation, but this last item says they want the certified copy and the translation. Is that correct? It doesn`t make sense to me that they prefer a certified copy over the original document.
Which version should I upload?

Thanks
