I read a bank input file comprised of bank information along with the front images and back images of checks.
I want to write out purely the front images and back images of checks to a .tif file.
I found the following link which details the record layout of tif files:

The first 37 bytes of the bank input file are as follows:

No.  Where it is should be in the details of how the bank record is structured.

Even though when you open the file as a tif file, the check image displays properly?

So there is not a fixed position in the file from which to find the location of and length of the images?

Then that sounds like the image starts with position zero in the bank record file.  (Though I am a little surprised the viewer you use doesn't object to the non image information that appears later in the file.)
