Here are some thoughts on folding brochures or other printed product. Book always has a fiber direction. Folding with the grain direction gives times cleaner, with fewer cracks. We've all seen the brochures are cracks in the folds. How can you reduce cracking? Folding with the grain will be help.
Moreover, in the case of heavy paper (let's say more than 100 # book) need to score or crease the paper with a machine to help train to top to prevent or minimize cracking. Our rule of thumb is a brochure on the book 80 # may or may not need to score. Nothing heavier than 80 # book or any weight of the cover shall be recorded. Score minimize cracking, but not always eliminated in the printed product. Cracking in the printed products is more noticeable when there is ink in the creases. Especially dark inks.
Score can be done in a typeface or the current folder or other machine that folds paper. Printing of score is the highest quality score it can do. The folding of grain of the Cross, I would recommend some form of score elimininate to reduce or cracks.
