Tutorial: Detect and Extract MICR - Console C#

MICR detection and extraction technology is a very important piece of many applications in the banking, finance, legal, and insurance industries that can’t afford to rely on slow, error-prone manual data entry. The MICR line at the bottom of all checks consists of three separate numbers, which are the check number, account number, and bank routing number. The MICR font is made out of a magnetic ink that is intended to limit check fraud. The reason magnetic ink is used is because it allows computers to recognize the characters even if they have been covered by a signature, cancellation marks, or other types of marks.
