Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute. Requests for interpretation should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this standard. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard no later than five years from the date of approval.

Image Width and Image Height are defined below: Test Result Name: Image Width Description in words: The width of the image view which is the horizontal dimension of the image view when presented in its normal (visually correct) orientation. Formula(e) or Algorithm(s): N/A Data Type: Numeric (includes the numbers “0“ through “9“) Data Units: Tenths of inches Data Range: “0“ through “200“ (0 through 20 inches) Recommended accuracy of test result: ± 5% Test Result Name: Image Height Description in words: The height of the image view which is the vertical dimension of the image view when presented in its normal (visually correct) orientation. Formula(e) or Algorithm(s): N/A Data Type: Numeric (includes the numbers “0“ through “9“) Data Units: Tenths of inches Data Range: “0“ through “200“ (0 through 20 inches) Recommended accuracy of test result: ± 5% Test Parameters reported: This test has two test parameters, “Minimum Image Width Threshold“ and “Minimum Image Height Threshold“. Minimum Image Width Threshold and Minimum Image Height Threshold are defined below: Test Parameter Name: Minimum Image Width Threshold Description: The minimum image view width below which the image view width is considered to be undersize by the entity performing the “Undersize Image“ test. Data Type: Numeric (includes the numbers “0“ through “9“) Units: Tenths of inches Data Range: “0“ through “200“ (0 through 20 inches) Test Parameter Name: Minimum Image Height Threshold Description: The minimum image view height below which the image view height is considered to be undersize by the entity performing the “Undersize Image“ test. Data Type: Numeric (includes the numbers “0“ through “9“) Units: Tenths of inches Data Range: “0“ through “200“ (0 through 20 inches) 3.0 Intended Use (Mandatory) The intended use for this check image test is to determine whether a check image view has an undersized dimension indicating a problematic image. This test is intended to be used in financial check imaging applications such as check image exchange and check truncation.

An image where a significant portion of the original source document is absent (top missing, right side missing, bottom missing, or left side missing). Folded document. An image where a significant portion of the original source document is folded (top edge folded, right edge folded, bottom edge folded, or left edge folded). Improperly framed document, e.g. image capture begins too late, or ends too early. An image where the leading edge or trailing edge of the document has been truncated due to a camera synchronization error during the image capture proce
