This invention adds new markings to an original check face prior to tender and processing of the check. These markings, when digitally scanned from the original, are readily interpreted and preserved. During the process of truncating the original with image replacement documents (IRDs) that are the legal equivalent, the new markings solve two major problems when the IRDs are formally introduced into the clearinghouse channel. First, the clipped image of the original check can be properly aligned within a designated region within the IRD based on the uniform markings. Second, data content aligned in reference to the uniform markings preserved in the IRD process can be properly recognized and read as if the software was scanning the original physical document.
