3625-131 ABSTRACT Disclosed is a novel machine readable document and process wherein variable data, once located on a document and classified as to type, may be accurately read and digitized notwithstanding the presence of background patterns or pictures of an unlimited and unknown variety. The document may be a check with the maker's signature in a first horizontal band area. The written pages and numerical amount appear within second and third band areas on the check. Fluorescent or phosphorescent ink is applied as background on the band areas and trips a scanner when subjected to ultraviolet light. Once tripped, the scanner reads only preselected portions of the check, namely the band areas. Any writing within the areas and on top of the ink sharply contrasts with the background ink to permit the handwritten matter within the band areas to develop information signals corresponding only to the hand- written portion of the check. Data at an unknown location on various documents, including checks, may be machine located, read, digitized and compiled into a summary or composite statement.
