Cut & Fold Book Folding Questions

Need help? Here you’ll find answers to the most frequently asked questions about cut & fold book folding.

What do you do when a pattern lists the same mark twice ?. eg 10.3 10.3

This a common occurence and generally happens with the more detailed designs. Most people add .1 to the second mark. so 10.3 10.3 becomes 10.3 10.4.

More experienced folders will generally look at the folds either side of the page and either add .1 or subtract .1 whichever fits in better.

In really detailed patterns it’s not uncommon to have a run where by adding .1 you create another duplicate. In this case keep adding .1 until the sequence is broken.

Will any pattern works as a Combi ?
In theory you could use any pattern, however, the best are those that have an unbroken outline and do not use inset pages.
