Issue with PrintChecks.fo.ftl

Hi,

I'm having issues printing a check from the webtools (the amount is not
displayed before the **************).

I believe it is one of the following lines but I could not get it fixed :

<#assign amount =
Static["org.ofbiz.base.util.UtilNumber"].formatRuleBasedAmount(payment.getDo
uble("amount"), "%dollars-and-hundredths", locale).toUpperCase()/>

<fo:block padding-before="0.4cm" margin-left="1.3cm">${amount}<#list
1..(100-amount.length()) as x>*</#list></fo:block>

Can anyone help? Thanks, Steve.
