Print Roll Fold with Cross Fold Leaflets

Well folded instead of crookedly wound, this is the roll fold with cross fold. It is produced in the same way as the cross fold with roll fold - only the other way round: First it is folded twice vertically in one direction, then once horizontally. In the end, however, the wraparound cross-fold also has 12 pages.

On the Flip Side – The Roll Fold with Cross Fold in Portrait.

Leaflets with roll fold with cross fold

Welcome to "13 in one go". Today we'll once again be presenting a folded leaflet from our collection - the roll fold with cross fold. So stay tuned and read with us, here we go.

Do these words sound familiar to you? Okay, we admit - we copied and pasted this straight out of the cross fold with roll fold page. After all, who could tell the difference between a roll fold with cross fold and a cross fold with roll fold? Well, it is simply turned crosswise and rolled the other way.

The Devil is in the Details.

In fact, the two types of folds have a lot in common: 12 pages - check; 4-colour printing - check; Bundles of 25, 50 or 100 copies - check.

There are however also differences. Such as:

How many? - Print runs
The print runs for the roll fold with cross fold go up to six digits, up to a total of 100,000 copies. Larger numbers are possible in the case of the cross fold with roll fold, you can order a quarter of a million of these folded flyers - 250,000 to be precise.

How big? – Formats
In terms of format, the roll fold with cross fold surpasses its counterpart by three lengths - in addition to the six formats that are also possible with the cross fold with roll fold it can boast even bigger ones, namely 140 x 297 mm, 210 x 210 mm and 210 x 297 mm (A4).

And just so that we are all on the same page, here are the remaining six formats again:

  • 105 x 105 mm
  • 120 x 120 mm
  • 105 x 148 mm (A6)
  • 100 x 210 mm
  • 105 x 210 mm
  • 120 x 180 mm

On what? - Paper
As far as paper is concerned, the roll fold with cross fold dispenses with the 170g coated art paper option (matt and glossy). Despite this, it is far from boring. If you are looking for a lightweight, then this is the one for you. Choose between offset or coated art paper in weights from 80g to 135g.

Which way around? - Page orientation
We can by no means ignore the fourth difference, or else disaster threatens. Whether you roll or cross first determines where the individual pages fall within the finished leaflet. And if one ignores that, the cover can quickly land on the inside - and it certainly doesn't belong there. Because in the roll-cross folding process the sheet is first folded vertically - evenly sectioned - and then folded horizontally, the cover and back begin on the far left of the open format front. If you cannot really picture this, you are not alone: Some of us also require visual support; but that's what our data sheets are for. You can always find them to the right of the calculation mask. Here you will find everything you need to ensure your print file is an error-free template for the printed product, with product-specific tips on format and orientation, as well as a guide to providing the print data.

Leaflet Mini-Series "Stories Round the Bend" – Chapter 4 - Fold and Paper Grain Directions

No matter what is being folded, what is created is a so-called crease. The reason for this is that the paper fibres break during the folding process - the question is how noticeable it is. Much and/or dark ink, as well as finishes and/or coatings can cause a fold to look extremely unsightly and lead your print product to end up in the waste paper basket.

Move in the Right (Grain) Direction

The problem can to a degree be remedied by paying attention to the paper grain direction. What does this mean? The alignment of the paper fibres. Before paper becomes paper, it is pulp. It is passed through a sieve and set in the direction in which it passes through the paper machine; this is also called the production direction. The paper is then rolled up and cut into coils of different sizes - narrow and wide or short and long grain. The difference: with a narrow grain the grain direction is parallel to the long side, with a wide grain it is exactly the opposite. Pretty complicated. And what's the point of all this?

Short Grain, Long Grain - Do I Need To Know That?

Why is it useful to know which grain and therefore which grain direction a given paper has? Because paper is more solid and at the same time more stretchable in the grain direction. This is important when folding, as it is easier to fold parallel to the paper's grain direction.

The proof in the pudding!

If you want to know in which direction the grain of a paper runs, there are several options:

Tear test:It's very simple. Take a sheet of paper and tear it both lengthwise and widthwise. Along the grain, the paper a) will tear more easily, and b) will tear straighter than in the opposite direction.

Nail test:A little more demanding. But it also starts with a sheet of paper. This is drawn once lengthwise and once widthwise between thumb and forefinger. Ideally, the paper remains smooth when pulling along the grain, while it will curl slightly in the opposite direction.

Moisture test:Something for those who like to experiment. You again start with a sheet of paper. Moisten, lay in a container filled with water and wait to see what happens: The paper will roll up at right angles to the grain direction.

Bending test:You start with ... not a sheet of paper this time. The bending test is more often used for cardboard. It is bent in both directions. Whichever direction the cardboard is easier to bend in will be the grain direction.
