Question

How do I read fold lines on trifold brochure proofs?

Answer

On a trifold brochure proof, the marked fold lines show exactly where the piece will be creased, so you can confirm everything lines up before approving.

  • The proof includes front and back views, each with its fold lines indicated.
  • Check that copy and images near a fold are not split awkwardly across the crease.
  • Confirm the fold positions align on both sides so panels match front to back.
  • Keep key text inside each panel, clear of the fold lines, so nothing gets lost in the crease.

Once the folds line up on both views, the brochure will fold as designed.
