Kuwait Finance House prints at 178 x 89 mm, one of the two sizes used across Kuwait's supported banks. Al Ahli Bank of Kuwait uses the same footprint; NBK, Boubyan and Warba use the larger 202 x 93.
Size and field layout
| Property | Value |

Three decimals on a smaller cheque
Set decimal digits to 3 in Settings — the dinar has 1,000 fils, and two decimals will misstate every amount with fils in it.
The interaction worth watching is that three decimals plus a 178 mm cheque means the figures field is carrying more characters in less space than on a 202 mm leaf. On your test print, check the amount-in-figures box first: if the last digit is crowding the edge of its box, drop that field's font size a step rather than shortening the amount.
Islamic banking, ordinary cheque
KFH is an Islamic bank, which changes the products behind the account and nothing about how a cheque is printed. The layout, date format and currency handling work exactly as they would for a conventional bank. The same is true of Boubyan and Warba.
How to set it up
- Decimals to 3.
- Account under Kuwait Finance House.
- Cheque book with the KFH layout.
- Test-print; verify the figures field before a real leaf.
