The E-13B MICR font (TROY E-13B, TROY CMC-7) can be used for printing the MICR line in many countries, including the United States. In some European and Latin American countries, the CMC-7 MICR font is used instead. MICR document processing requires that the MICR characters be precise in size, shape, and spacing. For this reason, the TROY MICR font is supplied as a TrueType font; it must not be altered by scaling or other size manipulation. TROY can provide customer support for your MICR applications only if you use the supplied TROY MICR fonts.

Your TROY Security Printing Solution includes a large, small and enhanced convenience amount font (TROY ECF, TROY LCF, TROY SCF). These fonts consist of numbers with their alphabetic spellings placed directly below the numerical character. These fonts are designed for use in the Legal Amount field only (located directly below the Payee field). You can enter alphanumeric symbols representing the amount of the check into this field.

The TROY Security font (TROY SECURITY, TROY SECURITY SPANISH) is designed to prevent fraudulent alteration to the Amount field on the check. The font consists of numbers with their alphabetic spellings placed directly below the numerical character with a wavy lined pattern running through each character. These fonts are designed for use in the Legal Amount field only (located directly below the Payee field on the check). You can enter numeric symbols representing the amount of the check into this field. During document processing, convenience amounts may be visually read and encoded on the check by bank personnel. In this case, a large Security Amount font may best meet your bank’s requirements.

The TROY OCR fonts (TROY OCR-A AND TROY OCR-B) are used to print any information (names, addresses, amounts) on the check that is to be read by automated readers using optical character recognition.

The TROY Reverse Helvetica font is used to print names and addresses on the back of transparent envelope windows for use in pressure-seal machines.

The POSTNET (Postal Numeric Encoding Technique) font (TROY POSTNET) is used to represent the nine-digit postal zip code below the postal address line. Using the POSTNET font on your mailing envelopes and postcards will significantly decrease postal processing time and reduce the chance of errors when manual data entry is required at the post office.

The British Pound and European currency symbols are used in place of the U.S. dollar sign for the respective European country and can be selected to print in the audit reports.
