About This Tool
The Mobile Deposit Check Alignment Sheet Generator creates a printable US Letter (8.5×11 inch) calibration template designed to eliminate mobile banking camera framing errors. Mobile banking applications frequently reject checks due to shadow occlusion, improper aspect ratios, or missing endorsement lines. Enter your Payee name, check dollar amount, and financial institution name.
The utility uses the pdf-lib library to generate a calibrated PDF document containing two standard 6.0×2.75 inch (432×198 pt) bounding boxes matching commercial US personal check dimensions. The top box guides check front framing with sample MICR transit line placement, while the bottom box illustrates proper endorsement signature orientation with the statutory "FOR MOBILE DEPOSIT ONLY AT [Bank Name]" checkbox. All PDF creation runs client-side in browser memory with zero bank or financial data transmission.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do mobile banking apps reject deposited checks?
Common rejection causes include dark shadows, background clutter, folded check corners, or missing the restrictive endorsement text required by federal banking regulations.
Are these dimensions calibrated to real US bank checks?
Yes. The alignment boxes measure exactly 6.0 by 2.75 inches (432 by 198 PostScript points), corresponding to standard personal check size.
Is any payee or check information sent to a server?
No. The PDF document is assembled entirely on-device using client-side WebAssembly and JavaScript. No banking data leaves your device.
