What are Duplicate Checks?

Duplicate checks are manufactured into pads comprised of alternating sheets of carbonless check paper and lighter identically numbered plain paper. The carbonless check paper automatically records every transaction onto the plain paper to create a permanent reference copy. Our entire personal check line is available in your choice of one-part or duplicate checks.

What are Side-Tear Checks?

Side-Tear Checks are bound into pads on the left side rather than across the top. Many customers believe Side-Tear checks are easier to tear off the check pad.

What is a Side-Tear Converter?

A Side-Tear Converter is a vinyl insert that will convert your Top Tear checkbook cover into a Side-Tear checkbook cover in two easy steps.

Step #1  Insert the Side-Tear converter flap into the bottom section of your checkbook cover.

Step #2  Slide the cardboard backing of your checks into the pocket of the converter.

Why are you moving from 4 to 2 pads on single check orders?

We have simplified our packaging for your convenience and hope you find changing check pads less frequently more convenient. The number of checks is still the same at 80 checks per box. Duplicate Checks will remain at 4 pads per box.

Why does my check packaging have a new look?

In order to provide superior protection for your checks, we have updated our packaging. This unique check holder is convenient, consumes less paper and is 100% recyclable. We hope this helps you protect your checks while using it at home or on the go.

  2. Pictures must be at least 36 DPI (dots per inch).
  3. Pictures must be under 4MB in file size.

What is resolution?

Resolution determines the quality of your photo. A high-resolution image is clear and shows more detail, so it will reproduce better on your Checks Unlimited Custom Photo Products. Image resolution is measured in pixels.

What is a pixel?

Pixels are tiny colored dots that make up an image. A photo that contains more pixels will remain clear as you increase its size. Your image must be at least 36 DPI (dots per inch) in order to be uploaded.

What file types are accepted?

We accept the following file types: .JPG, .JPEG, and .BMP files.

Why won't my photo upload?

Your photo may not upload because it does not meet the requirements listed above or you do not have Flash Player Version 6 or later installed on your computer, which is needed to upload and edit your photograph.

Can all Checks Unlimited Custom Photo Products be printed in full color?

Yes. If you upload a full-color photograph, your products will be printed in full color. If a black and white photo is submitted, your products will be printed in black and white. Please note that the color on personal checks will be lightened to comply with ANSI (American National Standards Institute) Standards. This ensures that your checks will meet all bank regulations. If we print your checks too dark, your bank could refuse to process them.

Can I get more than one picture printed?

Yes. You can submit up to 4 photos to be printed on your checks with our rotating series. At this time, all other products are limited to one photo per item. We cannot create collages from your photos.

Will you accept professional photographs or photos from magazines or other printed materials?

Can I supply a disk with the photo I wish to use on my Checks Unlimited Custom Photo Products?

Currently, orders for photo products are only accepted through online orders.

Why are the images on my checks so light?

Images printed on checks must be lightened considerably in order to comply with ANSI (American National Standards Institute) Standards. This ensures that your checks will meet all bank regulations. If we print your checks too dark, your bank could refuse to process them.

What type of photos work best?

Horizontal photos that are clear and sharp work best. Avoid photos that are too dark or too light, out of focus or very busy. Images will be lightened on your checks in order to comply with bank standards.

Are photos saved electronically for reorders or do I have to re-upload my photos for a reorder?

Your photos are not saved once the order has been submitted. To reorder your Checks Unlimited Custom Photo Products, you must re-upload your photos.

If there is a flaw in my photo, can you fix it?

We do not touch up photos. Please keep in mind, if there are flaws in the original photo, they may be evident in the reproduction on your checks. Please edit your photos prior to uploading.

Will my photos be used without my permission?

No. We will not use your photo(s) for any purpose, other than to manufacture your order, without your express written permission.
