Machine-readable
CMC7 fonts
for check number strips
|

CMC7
(Code Magnetic
Character, part of ISO-1004-2:2013 MICR standard) is
necessary to
print the numbers and special symbols at the bottom of
checks so they
can be recognized by the OCR/magnetic ink reader systems
used by banks
in Continental Europe, Mexico, Brasil and Japan. In the
past,
these fonts where supplied as cartridges. Thanks to
modern technology,
these fonts are now available for Windows, Mac OS X,
OS/2, Linux.
How
does
it
work ?
These
CMC7
fonts
come in both TrueType, and OpenType PostScript. They
are
installed just like any other font. Once installed,
they are available
to all applications in the system, like Helvetica,
Arial, Times New Roman, Courier...
To
create
the proper magnetic strip, one needs numbers, and
separator symbols.
The separators are ABCDE.
Below
is
an
example of the data one would enter in a plain font,
to get the same as
what is printed at
the bottom of a pre-printed check:
C1234567
C123456789012E123456789012A
This
is
how it looks with the CMC7 font from Match Software :

All
you
have
to do, is to copy on the screen what you see at the
bottom of your
own checks ! This data can be entered by hand, or
suplied by any
database or spreadsheet program.
Tests
on
a
variety of current laser printers have showed constant
results, within
MICR tolerance, measured with standard test equipment.
This font
meets or exceeds ISO 1004-2:2013 Standard and the
French Banking
Association (Association des Banques Françaises)
standards.
What
do
I
need besides the font ?
To
print reliable CMC7 magnetic strips, a laser printer
with special MICR toner must be used. This special
toner works
perfectly
for other applications as well . Some ink jet printers
(mainly high
end) can also be used with MICR toner.
Check
paper
is
not mandatory, and valid checks can be produced on
plain paper
stock, but they will look more professional on a
medium meant for this.
You can find check refill at major office supply
retailers, such as
Office Depot, Stapples, etc, in several presentations
: 1 per page top,
middle or bottom (voucher),
three per page, etc. It is also easy to find at any
reputable online or
mail order office supply.
See
our
links
page
for MICR toner and check stock suppliers.
Setting
up
applications
It
is easy to create checks from any program,
including the simplest word processors (a Word
template document is
provided
with the package). The CMC7 fonts are available to all
standard
applications, as a regular system font.
Other
applications
well suited for check printing are database programs,
such
as Crystal Reports or Access for Windows, or ACI's 4D
for Macintosh.
Spreadsheet programs and their data merge can also be
used
successfully.
Basically, any program that can print numbers and text
can be used.
Including the simplest like WordPad and SimpleText, or
the most
sophisticated, like Desktop Publishing Programs such
as PageMaker™,
Adobe InDesign, or Quark XPress.
