1. A method for capturing draft information during a print process, the method comprising:
- in response to a print command being executed by an application to provide a copy, to a user, of a draft being issued to a payee, reading a spool file containing draft information associated with the draft;
extracting at least a portion of the draft information from the spool file; and
generating an output file containing the at least a portion of the draft information in the spool file;

Abstract
A system, method and computer readable medium for capturing draft or check data during a print process is disclosed. In another embodiment the present invention captures draft information during a print process. A user will initiate a print command to provide a copy of a draft being issued to a payee. In response to the print command a spool file is read. The spool file contains draft information associated. An output file containing the at least a portion of the draft information in the spool file is generated. The draft information is modified to conform to a template that provides improved automatic imaging recognition of the draft information such font type, font size and font spacing. Sending the output file to be printed.
