Matching Formats & Sizes

Checks
Cashier's checks, drafts and CD's are obvious targets for fraud. SecureStar® offers the protection you need to deter counterfeiting, and to limit your liability for losses should your check become the vehicle for fraudulent activity.

High Resolution Borders
Add an upscale look to your custom designed documents while improving security. Intricate linework doesn't reproduce accurately when photocopied or scanned; the details become distorted.


Backgrounds

Safety Paper
The Safety Paper background is printed using a special process that causes the ink to permeate through the paper. Subtle color variations that create the patterning are difficult to reproduce. The basket-weave pattern is very familiar to the general public, and inaccurate copies are easily recognized.

Available in Blue, Yellow, Green, Gray or Pink.

Prismatic
Subtle color blending plus intricate patterning create a printed background that is extremely difficult to copy. Our document designers have thoroughly tested color schemes, and use combinations that are very difficult to reproduce accurately on most color copiers. Documents are printed on white SecureStar® paper which contains all SecureStar® features.

Corporate Identity
Our skilled check designers will create a unique document background using your logo or other business identifier, printed in your corporate colors. The design options are nearly unlimited. Choose "step-and-repeat" patterns, oversized background logos and more. Documents are printed on white SecureStar® paper which contains all SecureStar® features.

Note: The designs shown on this page are not actual products. They are simply meant to illustrate the diversity of SecureStar® custom forms.
Check bodies can be printed with lines for "Pay to" and "dollars" or without, depending on your application.

Background Color Tints
These lithographed colors are available in ERASOL inks and are printed on white SecureStar® paper.
