BRIDGE® is committed to helping you provide documents that resist tampering or fraud. In addition, we offer the following Security Features:

Bleed Through MICR Numbering
Special dyes in the MICR ribbon bleed through the paper making the number visible on the back side of the form; to alter a number, it would have to be completely removed.

Artificial Watermark
Printed in transparent ink or varnish; photocopy and scanner resistant; printed features are visible from one side only when held at a 45 degree angle.

Warning Band
All security features should be used in conjunction with proper warning messages. Warning messages alert check handlers, processors and potential forgers that specific security features are present. (see example above)

Void Pantograph
Screen tint backgrounds in which the word "void" is hidden. When photocopied, the word "void" appears. The sample shown here is designed to defeat color copiers. This technology work best when using PMS ink colors that have 5% to 20% black in the ink mix. Effectiveness will vary based on the capabilities of the copier and are not guaranteed on all copiers.

Microprinting
Text printed so small that it appears as a screened line; fills or plugs if scanned or photocopied; must be verified with a low powered magnifying glass. Commonly used as a signature line. (see example above.)

DocuCheck Watermark Security Paper

A True Watermark
DocuCheck's fourdrinier watermark is pressed into the paper while it is still wet, producing a clear highly defined image that resists photocopying and scanning. In regular light, the watermark is visible from both sides of the sheet.

Chemical Reactants
This process resists duplication and alteration by having invisible chemical reactants in the paper. The reactants produce permanent stains when bleach or solvents are used to alter the document.

Invisible (Fluorescent) Fibers
For authenticity, these fibers are visible only under ultraviolet light and are extremely difficult to duplicate.

Visible Fibers
The visible fibers are randomly arranged and visible on both sides of the paper. Detectable in ordinary light, visible fibers provide easy identification when the document is examined without special equipment.

Bond and Carbonless
DocuCheck is available in both 26# Carbonless and 24# Bond. The Carbonless has an endorsable CB coating that prevents pens from skipping when endorsing checks. The 24# Bond sheet paper is laser compatible.

Paper Distribution Protection
Tight Security in all stages or production from manufacturing to warehousing to distribution ensures DocuCheck Watermark is only available to legitimate customers.
