I need to write a .NET library for printing checks. Nothing fancy: you pass in the data, out comes the printed check. What’s the best way to do this?
Constraints: The format of the check.

A lot of people are using report generators for this. It’s a bit overkill, but crystal reports will certainly do the job.
Other than that, this is a basic question about formatting printed output. Is that your intention?
Check out the printdocument class and you can do this yourself:

If you’re printing checks remotely (ie, you need to provide a check on the website that the user can print out) then using PDF is the easiest and most certain way to accomplish that, but be careful of the security implications.
