A method of using a folding apparatus to form an outsert having product information printed thereon comprises applying a plurality of parallel lines of water to a sheet of paper; making a plurality of folds in the sheet of paper in a direction parallel to a first direction with a first folding apparatus to form a first folded article; making a plurality of folds in the first folded article in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction to form an intermediate folded article; and making a final fold in the intermediate folded article in the second direction to form the outsert. Making the final fold may include forcing the intermediate folded article between a pair of adjustably-spaced folding members, the adjustably-spaced folding members to be adjustably spaced apart from each other by a distance that is within a range defined by a lower boundary of 0.25 inches and an upper boundary of 0.45 inches.

A method of using a folding apparatus to form an outsert having product information printed thereon comprises making a plurality of folds in a first direction in a sheet of paper; making a plurality of folds in a second direction perpendicular to said first direction to form folded articles; making a fold in said second direction to form an outsert; and applying pressure to at least one of said folded articles or said outsert, said pressure being at least about 30 pounds per square inch, said pressure being applied by a pressing unit comprising a plurality of pressure rollers.

A notebook including a group of a preset number of consecutive unit forms which are printed on both faces thereof and spreadably zigzag-folded is produced through a process that includes: printing on both surfaces of a continuous web by two printers each equipped with an endless belt-shaped printing plate, with intermediate inversion of the two surfaces of the web, followed by zig-zag folding and cutting and separating the printed web for each of the preset number of forms. The obtained notebook is capable of preventing falsification and missing pages by inclusion of a horizontal ruled line provided in a main data region and formed of a succession of micro characters.

A method of using a folding apparatus to form an outsert having product information printed thereon comprises applying a plurality of parallel lines of water to a sheet of paper using a plurality of spray nozzles and being applied at positions at which folds are to be made; making a plurality of folds in a first direction in the sheet of paper with a first folding apparatus; making a plurality of folds in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; and making a fold in in the second direction to form an outsert including causing a movable member of a folding apparatus to make contact with and move a folded article towards a folding roller, and so that the folded article makes contact with the folding roller to form a fold in the folded article.

A three-ring binder apparatus with extension supports for the secure, hands-free display of up to six pages of material without requiring any other external supports is described. The apparatus facilitates a simple method to turn the pages on an easel or similar freestanding display, and secure them in a desired position. The apparatus is designed as a tool for the display of choreographed workouts, music sheets, and any other situation where multiple pages are needed to be easily accessed. The apparatus consists of a three-ring binder (may be either a freestanding three-ring easel binder or a standard flat three-ring binder), two extension supports, and clipboard-style clips that can be pivoted or folded back into the binder to ease the break-down and transport of the apparatus. The device preferably includes clear pocketed tri-fold sheet protectors or other tri-fold devices.

An interactive workbook tool for conveying information provided on a plurality of information display surfaces and configured with plurality of folds and a plurality of tabs, which allow for multiple uses of the workbook as a user can be guided through the workbook and information therein in various sequences and in manners where information on one or more tabs is easily accessible for forward or backward reference. The information on the tabs can be viewed in a plurality of manners including in one or more sequences and concurrently. Multiple tabs can be viewed concurrently and individually based on use of a plurality of fold lines and a plurality of cut lines, allowing for a customizes visualization and user experience.
