The font is for Linux - I would bet he is talking about using OO on
Windows. There are MICR fonts commercially available for Windows but if
they are doing MICR printing from any Windows software, they probably
already have the fonts and they should be available to OO if they are
already installed.

I am thinking that we don't understand the question that George is
asking.
