MICR Fonts for check E13B

Hi,
I am working on checks. I am evaluating E13B ID Automation MICR fonts. ID Auto offers many fonts like IDAutomationMICR.TTF, IDAutomationSMICR.TTF etc.
I would like to know which is the most widely accepted font for checks and what is the font size to use for printing checks.
Thanks
Neeraj

Hi Tim,
I was looking through a post regarding MICR Fonts for check printing:
Has there been any further development done on this subject?
"I am trying to setup an AP Check using XMLP and access the MICR font and the Signature "font" from the printer. I can of course get everything to work from MS Word, however, I need to be able to either - print it Directly from JDE using the RTF templateor I need to be able to print it from the PDF.
Can I use embedded <esc> commands or PCL call before the PDF is created and if so, can anyone provide documentation or direction on how to set this up? "
Your help would be much appreciated, Thanks
Nelly

  • How to implement MICR Fonts for AP Checks using XML Publisher

    Hello -
    We are upgrading from Oracle 11.5.9 to R12.1.1
    I have created the RTF template for AP checks. Everything works except that now I have ti implement MICR fonts. Our earlier solution was through Optio, which I can not use now.
    Please help me find necessary documentation to find ALL of the steps required to implement MICR fonts in the XMLP/RTF/PDF environment. Also, do we have to buy the fonts files, or are they available for free to download. We are using HP-UX 9000.
    Thanks

    Using MICR in XMLP is like using any other special font (i.e. barcode). Please see below some link on how to have the fonts(MICR) working on your templates. Also, you could buy fonts but may want to try first on the MICR font shipped with the BI Publisher Desktop (i.e. C:\Program Files\Oracle\BI Publisher\BI Publisher Desktop\Template Builder for Word\fonts).

  • MICR Font for printing payroll checks

    We are in the process of changing banks. The new bank has rejected our sample checks because the spacing is too wide. We are supposed to be using MICR font E-13B.
    How do I find out what font we're using? And, how do I change the font?

    I used the free GnuMICR.ttf from this site: http://sandeen.net/GnuMICR/
    The checks were reviewed by a bank and approved.

  • Smartform-How to generate MICR symbol for check form.

    I need to build a smartform that generates a remittance and a check.  Has anyone done this and if so, can you share the code that generates the MICR or advise me how to get the MICR symbols on the check?
    -Emily

    Thank you for the OSS note tip.  I see in the note that if you're using MICR_C font for example, then I'm assuming you would code the 'D','A','B', etc. characters in your smartform and somehow our Troy/HP MICR printer would recognize these special codes and interpret them.  However, do you have an example of how the actual smartform layout and 'code' might look?

  • Font for Check printing

    Hi,
    I need to create a template for check printing with the routing number and account number on the
    check. How should I download the font to my word document. So that I can work on the fonts.
    And Do you have any document which explains how to use these fonts to create the routing number?
    Thanks in advance!!!
    Edited by: user647243 on Sep 23, 2008 6:25 AM

    Thanks for the reply.
    I created a file in the server and given the path in configuration>general.
    Now program is working fine but the required font is not displayed.
    I created a font mapping file and a font mapping set and then created font mapping and mapped to the file.
    I also changed the configuration of FO processing to the font mapping set created earlier.
    I think I followed all the steps.when I checked I can see the font file that has been downloaded into the temp directory that
    I created. But My template doesn't use it for some reason. I have attached the font mapping to the template configuration.
    Am I missing anything here??
    Thanks a lot for looking into this!!!

  • MICR Font in CHECK

    Hi all,
    In my check printing, i have used the Paragraph format  "MI" , which has the Font Family "MICR_E" and size "10". I have given like,
    MI     C&REGUD-CHECT&C A&REGUH-UBNKL&A &REGUH-          UBKNT&C
    but in the MICR Printer it is not Printing. please guide me.

    Try to print the standard text from SO10 to the check printer and see if you can see the MICR codes.
    SAPSCRIPT-MICRTEST
    If it prints correctly then check for the printer to which you are printing from F110.
    Create a spool for the check to be printed. In raw data of the spool check for MICR there should be an FC if its not there then you have to check for the Printer fonts if MICR is added to the printer font or not.

  • Installing MICR Font

    Hi
    I need to install MICR font for check printing in Payroll and I am following the steps from Metalink Note [373377.1|https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:7685619999041617940::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,373377.1,1,0,1,helvetica]
    After creating font files and font Mappings, when I go to Configuration > FO Processing, I am not able to select the font mapping set I have created in here, as it says no items found. However when I go to Font Mappings and query on the Mapping set, it retrieves it.
    Am I missing any step here. I followed every step in the note except for step 10, style and weight as I don't see any such fields here.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Sharmila

    As you have followed the note, try checking your Mapping Set "type" if it's for FO Processing.
    --> Type: 'PDF Form' for PDF templates. 'FO to PDF' for all other template types.

  • How to use MICR fonts in Adobe forms (webdynpro java

    Hi,
          We have a requirement where we need to print some MICR codes (for checks) through Adobe Forms.
    I have installed some true type MICR fonts in windows and Adobe Font Manager (in ADS) as well.
    It is visible in the Adobe Form design time (Font palette) and when I use the font for text, it is visible in preview too. But when I run the web dynpro application, in the online form it is converted into Standard font (Times new Roman).
    Is there anyway to handle this issue.
    Please let me know.
    I am using NWDS 7.0.1
    Adobe Live cycle designer 7.1
    SAP NW 2004s SP14

  • MICR font not displayed in PDF on SUSE Linux Server for Check Writer (XML)

    We are generating checks by running the Check Writer(XML) concurrent request and are not able to see MICR fonts on the Check. We downloaded the free version from IDAutomationSMICR.ttf and the fonts were registered under /usr/local/fonts/micr directory. I registered in APPS and uploaded the file IDAutomationSMICR.ttf. Am I missing any steps. The DBA's have registered the fonts under /usr/local/fonts/micr on SUSE Linux Server . The custom Checks are generated but no luck with the fonts. Please advise. Can I download MICR fonts other than IDAutomation site? Appreciate your response.
    Thanks,
    Hari

    I use version 11i, so the steps are probably different. Download a font file (gnuMICR for me). Extract it to a location of your choice on your operating system.
    Follow these steps to load the MICR font to the server. (Step 11 was missing in some of the metalink documents in late 2007. I think Jan. 2008 will be OK).
    1.     Log in as XML Publisher Administrator.
    2.     Navigate to Administration->Font Files->Create Font File.
    3.     Fields are Font Name and File. For Font Name choose any descriptive name. File will browse your PC to locate the font file.
    4.     Navigate to Font Mappings->Create Font Mapping Set.
    5.     Mapping name is the name you will give to a set of fonts. [MICR Font]
    6.     Mapping code is the internal name you will give to this set. [MICR]
    7.     Type: 'PDF Form' for PDF templates. 'FO to PDF' for all other template types.
    8.     Create Font Mapping (this allows you to add multiple fonts to a set).
    9.     Font Family is the exact same name you see in Word under Fonts. If you don't use the same name the font will not be picked up at runtime. [GnuMICR]
    10.     Style and weight must also match how you use the font in Windows. Normal and Normal are good defaults. [Normal, Normal]
    11.     DO NOT enter Language or Territory
    12.     Choose a value for Font Type. [Truetype]
    13.     Search for the Font you just created in step 3. [GnuMICR]
    14.     Navigate to Configuration -> FO Processing -> Font Mapping Set. Can also be done at data def and template level under Edit Configuration. Hierarchy is Site-> Data Def -> Template.
    15.     Select your new mapping set.
    16.     Make sure the font is not referenced under File->Properties->Custom in the RTF template file.
    17.     Select a temporary directory on your concurrent processing node (Configuration -> General). This needs to be a private area not shared by other processes, read writeable by the applmgr (owner of the $APPL_TOP file system). It should be fairly large 5 GB or 20x larger than any datafile being used. The fonts will be downloaded here the first time they are used.
    18.     Also at this site level select your font mapping set.
    19.     Upload a template that uses your special font and test using preview.

  • MICR font problem for check printing in ECC6

    Hi All,
    I am working of the re-deployment project. Here we are just migrating the objects from  4.6c to ECC6. I am facing the problem with SAP Script for check printing. It is working fine in 4.6c,but it is not working fine in ECC.
    We are using  HP 8150 printer with TROY magnetic chip and toner. It is working fine for 4.6C, but not for ECC6.
    We are using "A" character for "Transit" and "C" character for "On as" in SAP Script. But during printing preview time it is not formatting it in MICR font.
    I am working with basis team for font code page 4004. I came to know, it is showing character set in 4.6c with spool administrator tab character set, but this tab page does not showing any character set.
    But according basis team, it is existing in ECC. If we will check through SCP it is showing unicode converted code page.
    In 4.6c we are using Zee printer driver with Zee family fonts(ZMICR and ZSIGN) but in ECC we are using MICR_E(SAP provided MICR font) in TROY provided printer driver.
    I have also come through the SAP note 94233 for MICR printing.
    Same problem we are facing with digital signatures. It is not converting digital signature in graphical signature at MICR printer level.
    Any help would be appreciated...........!
    Thanks

  • MICR font check printing

    Client wants to use blank check stock sent to a laser printer with magnetic ink to prink their checks.
    I assumed if they have a valid MICR font set installed on their workstation, I can just modify one of the Business One check layouts to use the MICR font to print the Check Number, ABA Number and Account Number on the bottom of the check. I know I have to print the numbers in the correct sequence per the MICR Gauge. I figure I will have to concatenate the fields with their start/stop codes into one big formula and then print that at the bottom of the check.
    Has anybody else done this? Is there something I'm missing?
    TIA.

    Hi Cindy Lange,
    There is an add-on that has been created for MICR check printing and is available to the SAP Business One market in the US currently (I am not sure about other countries yet). The SAP Business One partner that has developed this add-on for Business One is located in California and the company is Mekorma. You can see details of the product at [www.mekorma.com] as well as is you are an SAP Business One partner you can also get details on the products from Mekorma at [service.sap.com].
    Hope this helps,
