MICR 13B and CMC-7 Font<\/h2>\n

The approved MICR 13B and CMC-7 (ISO 1004) font that prints check numbers compatible for magnetic ink reader systems. Below is an example routing number defining each section:
\n\"MICR1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Creating a MICR 13B Routing String<\/h2>\n

To create a MICR font string:
\n1. From the top pane of the eFORMz Viewer create a variable for the check number you would like to include in the MICR line. Right click and select Add Variable<\/em>.
\n\"MICR5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

2. From the Variable dialog box, enter a new variable name (CHKnumber in this example) and click OK<\/em>.
\n\"MICR6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tip: If you do not wish the check number to appear in its original location, confirm that the option Copy original data to output<\/em> is unchecked.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

3. Create a new variable by right-clicking the form and selecting Add Variable > By Position<\/em>. The Variable dialog box will display, enter a new variable name (MICR in this example) and click OK<\/em>.
\n\"MICR7\"<\/a>
\n\"MICR8\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4. Right click the new variable and select Add Function > Insert String<\/em>.
\n\"MICR9\"<\/a><\/p>\n

5. The Insert Text dialog box will display. For this example we are going to split the MICR line into three sections:<\/p>\n

\/567888\/ &123456789& 9876-5432\/<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

– first character string \/ (ON US)
\n– check number (6 digit number)
\n– account and routing numbers including special characters
\n( \/ &123456789& 9876-5432\/ )<\/p>\n

\"MICR4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Note: Routing number combinations may vary.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

6. From the Insert > Constant<\/em> field enter the starting character of your MICR line. In the At character position Constant<\/em> enter character position 0. Click OK<\/em>.
\n\"MICR10\"<\/a>
\n7. Highlight the same variable as before (MICR), right click and select Insert String<\/em>.<\/p>\n

8. Since a check number variable was created earlier (CHKnumber), select Variable<\/em> for the Insert<\/em> field. From the list of options select the variable name, CHKnumber, which was created earlier. Enter the number one (1) in the Constant<\/em> field for the At Character Position<\/em>.
\n\"MICR11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

9. Right click MICR and select Add Function > Insert string<\/em>. The Insert String dialog box will display. Insert the remaining characters (&123456789& 9876-5432\/<\/em>), account and routing numbers into the Insert > Constant<\/em> field. In the At Character Position<\/em> field enter the starting position of the remaining character, in this case, character position 7.
