About creasing

Creasing is the process when a rounded edge creates an indentation in the paper to facilitate folding and to avoid cracks in the paper when the folding line runs across the paper grain. It is also common to crease paper of higher grammage before folding, regardless of the paper fiber direction.

Some machines use a knife shaped tool that strikes the paper, creating a crease while others have a wheel that runs over the paper. The tools can often be changed to create different width and depth of the crease to be better adapted to different types and thicknesses of paper.
