Write the amount you want to send in words:

Not only that, the alphabetic... scribbles are sometimes so far from legibility that tracing over is required. It only makes things worse.
I wrote a check last week for $7924.73. I swear I looked like a moron just trying to get it all to fit on that tiny little line
