Abstract
A system in which a check and its duplicate are formed. In an embodiment, a mating device mates a base stock of a negotiable instrument with a base stock of a duplicate negotiable instrument to form mated base stock. In one embodiment, the base stock of the duplicate negotiable instrument has a photosensitive coating applied to a portion of the duplicate negotiable instrument. A printing device may be used to print personalized information on the base stock of negotiable instrument portion of the mated base stock. Also, an exposure unit may be used to apply light to the mated base stock, wherein the application of the light to the mated base stock transfers a portion of the personalized information on the negotiable instrument to the duplicate negotiable instrument.
