Check Printing

[Fred Krogh]

Hi --
I'm a past user of MoneyDance and would like to suggest some 
enhancements to the check printing.

1. Allow for a memo field.
2. Allow printing more than one check at a time.  (My forms make any 
other solution awkward.)
3. Allow for automatic setting (with user override) of check numbers at 
the time of printing.
4. Allow for a font choice.

I realize not all or any of these things are likely to get done soon (or 
ever), but they are all in MoneyDance, and I've found all useful.  I'm 
not a subscriber here, so if you want me aware of any responses, please 
cc a copy to me.

Regards,
Fred

Custom Check printing in 1.5.98

[bill]

Check printing is a feature in 1.6 gnucash I have waiting for.   I see a problem that 
I am not sure if it's coding or my installation.   Every 
time I try to print a custom check the x & y coordinates are not being remembered so I 
have to retype them in.

In Portugal, you have PTE (Portuguese Escudos). Escudos have no longer 
decimal places, due to the EURO parity. One EURO cent equals two escudos 
(more or less). So, only the "$234" applies. If we have an amount of "234$" 
(about a US Dollar), we would write it as

"Duzentos e Trinta e Quatro Escudos" (meaning Two Hundred and Thirty Four 
Escudos".

If the amount is bigger (always is as a check costs abou 30PTE)... Lets say 
a PC costing 286.570 PTE (a bit over 1000 USD)
"Duzentos e Oitenta e Seis Mil Quinhentos e Setenta Escudos"
"Two Hundred and Eighty Six Thousand Five Hundred and Seventy Escudos"

Hope this helps someone. I can look at the scheme file and see how it could 
work in portuguese, although I promisse nothing as I never coded in scheme 
nor C.

Have fun!
