PRINTING INDICIA INDICATING AN INTENDED LOCATION OF A FOLD LINE
In an example, a print apparatus includes a controller and a printing unit. The controller may control the printing unit to print a media sheet with at least one indicia indicating an intended location of a fold line, wherein the media sheet is to be folded along the fold line. The controller may be to control the printing unit to print the at least one indicia to provide an offset gauge such that, when the media sheet is folded along a formed fold line, the indicia provides an indication of an offset between the intended location of the fold line and the formed fold line.

MODULAR GREETING CARD RACK
A rack display comprising a base having a front panel with a plurality of horizontal and vertical slots included thereon; left and right side panels extending from sides of the front panel; a back panel extending between the left and right side panels; and one or more shelf members including horizontal and vertical tabs. The shelf members are secured to the base by inserting the vertical and horizontal tabs within the vertical and horizontal slots respectively. The rack display is erected from a knockdown configuration by securing the shelf members to the front panel of the base via insertion of the horizontal and vertical tabs within the horizontal and vertical slots respectively.

DETECTING MISALIGNMENT
Examples of a method for detecting misalignment cause a printer to print a calibration pattern on a recording medium sheet. The calibration pattern includes graduated measurement scales positioned so that: when the calibration pattern is printed without misalignment on a recording medium sheet of predetermined dimensions, matching graduations of plural measurement scales in the calibration pattern are printed at respective reference locations on the recording medium sheet that correspond to corners of the recording medium sheet (or to spaced positions along a line where folding of the recording medium sheet by a folding apparatus is intended to take place). When the calibration pattern is printed with misalignment on a recording medium sheet of predetermined dimensions, non-matching graduations of the plural measurement scales are printed at the reference locations on the recording medium sheet.

Sheet processing apparatus, image forming system, and method of additionally folding sheet bundle
A sheet processing apparatus includes a pressing unit including a first pressing member and a second pressing member. The pressing unit is configured to sandwich and press a fold part of a folded sheet bundle between the first pressing member and the second pressing member. The sheet processing apparatus also includes a moving unit configured to move a position pressed by the pressing unit in a direction of a fold of the sheet bundle. A position pressed by the first pressing member on the sheet bundle and another position pressed by the second pressing member on the sheet bundle are shifted with respect to each other in the direction of the fold of the sheet bundle.
