It requires compensation folds in many formats since the last page's end needs to be in a certain position for the filing option (hanging strip/filing margin). As those packets have more, unevenly distributed, folds, they tend to be thicker on one side making them topple over when you pile them up. Furthermore, the stack gets bigger. DIN C The top and bottom folds are not necessarily on opposite sides. There are no compensation folds, which means that you are getting a thinner and more even stack when plotting a lot of prints and keeping them in one stack, either in plastic jackets or in envelopes/ folders.

Folding styles
The folder can fold pages in two
different
ways:
Fan fold, in which folds are perpendicular to the printing direction
Cross fold, in which folds are parallel to the printing direction
Folding styles are usually based on DIN B or DIN C style:
DIN B
The top and bottom folds are always on opposite sides. If this is what you want, select a
folding style below marked with an asterisk, as these are the ones based on DIN B style. All
folding styles that include a
filing
option (tab or
filing
margin) need to follow that
configuration.
It requires compensation folds in many formats since the last page’s end
needs to be in a certain position for the
filing
option (hanging
strip/filing
margin). As those
packets have more, unevenly distributed, folds, they tend to be thicker on one side making
them topple over when you pile them up. Furthermore, the stack gets bigger.
DIN C
The top and bottom folds are not necessarily on opposite sides. There are no
compensation folds, which means that you are getting a thinner and more even stack
when plotting a lot of prints and keeping them in one stack, either in plastic jackets or in
envelopes/ folders.
