Abstract: Security paper, security documents made from the security paper, and processes for making the security paper, are provided. A filament is bonded and embedded into paper which has previously been manufactured. The filament is bonded to the paper by an adhesive, or by heat and pressure. The filament is embedded into the paper by pressure applied by rolls. The filament may be imprinted with printed matter for visual confirmation of document authenticity. The filament may include any combination of security features, such as reflective filaments, fluorescent filaments, and high tensile strength filaments.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the deliberate cancellation of MICR-readable documents by applying a penetrating ink through the MICR line of the document wherein the ink contains magnetic particles which disrupt the reading of the MICR line by the MICR reader. The magnetic particles in the ink do not penetrate along with the other ink components, but remain on or near the surface of the document. These extraneous magnetic particles interfere with MICR readers by preventing accurate reading of the encoded MICR characters and cause the MICR reader to reject such a document from normal processing automatically.

Abstract: Security paper, security documents made from the security paper, and processes for making the security paper, are provided. A groove is formed in paper and a security element is positioned or bonded within the groove. A coating is applied over the security element so that the coating covers at least a portion of the security element and is coplanar with the surface of the paper. The security element may include any combination of security features for verification of document authenticity.
