Table of Contents
Morovia MICR/E-13B Fontware consists of true type, Postscript and PCL fonts to print MICR E-13B symbols on laser printers.
This package includes the following contents:
True type font file of precise design -
MRV MICR
.Additional 11 fonts for printer calibration.
The user manual, which you are reading on.
The PCL and Postscript (PFA and PFB) version.
Note: this package provides the most critical part in a check printing system. However, it does not come up with a complete solution to print checks. Designing and printing your own checks take much more efforts.
All files are packaged in a single zip file. The root directory contains
the installer for Windows operating system. Three sub-directories can be found
under the root directory: truetype
, postscript
,
and pcl
. They contain
True Type, Postscript and PCL fonts respectively.
Note
We recommend the use of true type version wherever applicable.
For use on Unix systems, you will likely to pick up either PFA or PFB version. Due to our resource constraints, we are unable to provide support for working with Unix systems. Some of our customers have successfully implemented check printing solutions on Unix with our fonts.
This package includes 10 typefaces. Among them, MRV MICR
and MICR
have the same characteristics, except typeface name.
The glyphs in the two fonts are designed to produce precise results that meet
the strictest testing requreiment when printed on a laser
printer with at least 600 dpi in resolution. Therefore, they should be
used by default in any distributed applications.
The following table lists all the true type font files. For other versions, see their own directory listing for details.
