I can't verify the printing on checks right now, but long ago when my Optacon 
was working, I made a Word document which had the information in the right spot 
to fill in the spaces on my checks.  I haven't ordered checks for a while 
because I can pay most everything via phone or Internet.  It's kind of fun 
making a document work, though.  So glad I had the Optacon.  At least if I 
still have need to write a check, I can unless they have changed positions for 
the fill-ins.

Lerae and list,

The only check I write is for rent. As long as my old word processor works, 
I use wallet-sized checks and just count lines and spaces to type the info 
in the right places, then verify it with the optacon and use a check guide 
to sign it. I've never used raised line checks and probably at this late 
date won't start; I've always just typed on regular checks. When the 
typewriter dies or I run out of those small checks I plan to go back to 
using Premier's talking checkbook software and Quickbooks-style checks.
