And serial number on checks/cheques. Many years ago, I used to work at a high speed A4 laser printing company, and one job was printing check books for a credit union customer. We we were given the stock with pre-allocated serial numbers 4 (or 5?) up on a page over which we laser printed the customer's check account details and that was later guillotined into separate check books. The point is... we had to account for every single page of that secure paper. If there was any wastage, it had to be gathered up and returned and documented in a register.
