MICR
(Magnetic Ink Character Recognition)
strips are used by U.S. bank systems to automate check processing,
68 millions last year. The MICR E13B characters must have very
precise dimensions, to generate reliable signal when going through
the readers. Many MICR fonts around do not meet these standards,
and not all MICR fonts are created equal. Some have positioning
inaccuracies that create unreliable MICR strips, and may generate
errors in the bank processing equipment, leading to manual processing
fees. The MICR E13B Match font set has been created with
extremely accurate positioning, and tested with the finest benchmark
systems. Under ideal conditions, there should be only one font
in use, the MICR E13B Match, which has been created specifically
to meet the ANSI and ABA (X9, 27-1995) banking standards when
printed at exactly point size 12. Unfortunately, the PC printing
chain is such, that several weak links can hinder results. Even
the most precise of font data is translated at least twice along
the printed chain : first, by the Windows printer driver, which
converts the font outlines it into data instructions (PostScript
or PCL) usable by the printer, and secondly, by the printer internal
logic circuits, which translates the outlines in data that will
drive the actual printing hardware. Even, at that last stage,
outlines are not printed as simple lines, but as a very fine
matrix of dots, by a laser beam, LED, or another technology.
So a full set of fonts is provided, with dimensions 1% apart
from each other. Two smaller sizes (MICRE13 M1 and MICRE13 M2)
provide 1% and 2% smaller printing, respectively. Two bigger
sizes (MICRE13 P1 and MICRE13 P2) provide 1% and 2% larger printing,
respectively. The MICR Calibration Wizard will let you
easily choose the best font for your entire printing chain, hardware
and software.
The MICR Calibration
Wizard
The MICR E13B
Match font set is the only one that comes with the exclusive
new MICR E13B Calibration Wizard. Within minutes, using
this astute calibration tool for all versions of Windows, from
3.1 up to the latest XP, you will be able to generate accurate
and reliable MICR strips. Simply launch the MICR Calibration
Wizard from the Start menu, and follow the simple instructions
on the screen. When finished, the program will give you the exact
name of the font that must be used to obtain optimum results.
Changes in the hardware (printer, controller) and software (Windows
version, driver) configuration may modify the MICR printing.
With the MICR Calibration Wizard, you will be able to recalibrate
your system anytime you upgrade.

In a few minutes,
the MICR Calibration Wizard will give you with certainty
the exact MICR font to use amongst the 15 fonts supplied in the
pack.
The Macintosh
font set is provided with precise calibration instructions to
get the same accurate, reliable MICR printing.
SecureAmounts
secure number anti-fraud typefaces
In
addition to the MICR fonts, we supply an exclusive collection
of 14 secure number fonts called SecureAmounts. Each of
them uses the best technology available, to defeat washing, grating,
rubbing, and modification of amounts printed on a check. Like
the latest US dollar bills, for instance, the SecureAmounts
1-6 fonts use waves of fine-line printing, extremely difficult
to modify or counterfeit. This is an exclusive feature of this
MICR font set.
These fonts
support several useful monetary symbols, such as dollars, cents,
pound sterling, yen, and euro. The euro symbol is supported in
the normal fashion, and accessible through the usual keyboard
combinations as defined by Microsoft. Some tiny lines on the
samples printed below will only show correctly on printers with
a resolution 600dpi or higher. You may want to use a magnifying
glass to see small details in these finely crafted, exclusive
typefaces when they are printed.
