<title>Overview</title>
<para>The check format file is used to tell &app; how to print a check or checks onto a page of paper.
This file first describes the overall layout of a page (number of checks, orientation, etc)
and then describes the layout of the specific items on a single check. The file is organized
as a typical Key/Value file used by many &lin; applications. Keys/values pairs are grouped
into sections that begin with the group name enclosed in square brackets.
</para>
<para>&app; looks for check format files in two different locations when you bring up the check printing
dialog. The first location is typically
<filename class="directory">/usr/share/gnucash/checks</filename>, where check files
distributed with the application can be found. The second location is the user private
<filename class="directory">&dir-data;checks</filename>
<footnote id="dir-old-chk">
<para>Up to &app; 2.6.21 it was <filename class="directory">&dir-old;checks</filename>
</para>
</footnote>
directory. Users may add check formats at any time (even while &app; is running) simply by
dropping a new <filename>*.chk</filename> file in this directory. The next time the check
printing dialog is opened the new check format will appear in the list of available check
formats.
</para>
<note>
<para>Printing functions differently depending on the version of GTK that is installed on your system.
When &app; is using a version of GTK prior to 2.10 all offsets are measured from the lower
left corner of the page or check. When using GTK 2.10 or later, all offsets are measured
from the upper left corner of the page or check.

The guid is used to uniquely identify a check format to &app;. It must be unique
across the entire set of application supplied and user supplied check formats. If
you copy an application check file as the basis of your own check format, you must
change this value. The <emphasis>uuidgen</emphasis> program may be used to
generate these identifiers.

<entry>
The title is used to uniquely identify a check format to the user. This value is
presented verbatim in the check format list of the check printing dialog. If you
copy an application check file as the basis of your own check format, you should
change this value. The title may be any utf-8 string.

<entry>
If supplied, this is the default font used to print all text items on this check.
This field can contain any string that is acceptable by gtk as a font specifier.
If this field is omitted, the default font is the font specified in the &app;
preferences dialog. A typical string would be <quote>sans 12</quote>.

If supplied, this is the default used when printing all <emphasis>TEXT</emphasis>
items on this check. When set to true, will print <emphasis>***</emphasis> before
and after each text field on the check. Blocking characters are printed to protect
check fields from alteration. For example, the amount field may be printed as
<emphasis>***100.00***</emphasis>

Rotation
</entry>

<entry>
This value specified the rotation of the entire page (in degrees) around the
origin point. For gtk versions prior to 2.10, the origin point is in the lower
left corner of the page and rotation values increase in the counter-clockwise
direction. For gtk version 2.10 and later, the origin point is in the upper left
corner of the page and rotation values increase in the clockwise direction.
Rotation of the page is applied before translation.

Translation
</entry>
<entry>

</entry>
<entry>

<entry>
These values specify the x and y translation of the entire page (in points)
relative to the origin point. For gtk versions prior to 2.10, the origin point is
in the lower left corner of the page and translation values increase moving up and
to the right. For gtk version 2.10 and later, the origin point is in the upper
left corner of the page and translation values increase moving down and to the

<title>Check Positions Group</title>
<para>This group of items specifies how multiple checks are laid out on the same sheet of paper, and gives

that &app; should print. This entire group of key/value pairs is optional, and should be
omitted if the format file only specifies a single check per page of paper.

This field specifies the names of the check locations that can be printed on each

and moving downward. The names are presented verbatim in the check position list
of the check printing dialog. A typical value for this field is
"Top;Middle;Bottom", but it could also be "First;Second;Third" or any other set of
strings that clearly identify the check locations. If there are multiple checks
per page then this item is mandatory. If there is only a single check per page,
this entire section should be omitted.

<title>Check Items Group</title>
<para>This section specifies the individual items that are printed on the check. There is no limit to the
number of items that may be present in this section, and any given type of item can be
repeated multiple times. This allows for the printing of checks that have a side stub, or
for the one-per-page business checks that have both the check and multiple check stubs on
the same page. For example, to print the payee name on a business check and on both stubs,
simply specify three payee items with differing print coordinates.
</para>
<para>Each key names in this section explicitly includes the item number to which it applies. E.G. The key
named <guilabel>Type_1</guilabel> applies to the first item to be printed, and the key
<guilabel>Coords_3</guilabel> applies to the third item to be printed. Item numbers start
at one and increase sequentially. Any gap in the numbering sequence is interpreted by
&app; as the end of the item list. Items are printed in the order of their item numbers,
not in the order in which they appear in the file.
</para>
<para>Each item specified must include a type declaration. The rest of the parameters for that item depend
upon the particular type of that item. See <xref linkend="check_table_types"></xref> for a

order are the X and Y offset of the lower left corner of the item, and optionally
the width and height of the item. If the width is supplied then the height must
also be supplied, so this field will always contain two or four numbers. For gtk
versions prior to 2.10, the origin point is in the lower left corner of the page
and translation values increase moving up and to the right. For gtk version 2.10
and later, the origin point is in the upper left corner of the page and

<para>These are the individual items that can be printed on a check. All items require the coordinates on
the page where the item should be printed. The majority of these items result in text
being printed on the page, and these items may have individual font and alignments
specified. For example, the numerical amount of a check could be printed right justified
while everything else is printed left justified. Other types may have unique parameters.

<title>Creating Check Format Files</title>
<para>Creating your own check format file is a fairly simple task. The easiest way to start is to copy an
existing check format file from the application directory (typically
<filename class="directory">/usr/share/gnucash/checks</filename>) to the directory
<filename class="directory">&dir-data;checks</filename><footnoteref linkend="dir-old-chk" />.
Make sure to change the guid so the new file will be accepted by gnucash, and change the
title to something descriptive. Then change or add individual item fields as necessary. You
can also create a new check file by clicking the <guibutton>Save Format</guibutton> button
on the <guilabel>Custom format</guilabel> page of the check printing dialog.
</para>
<note>
<para>Key names are case sensitive. If you are having problems with a check format file, ensure that all
key names have capital letters as documented above.
