In the world of trade printing, scoring finish refers to the process of making a crease in paper or cardboard, so it will fold easily. Scoring helps improve the appearance of the fold because it provides a consistent guideline as well as reduces the potential for the paper to buckle or crack. Finally, scoring finish is less likely to cause harm to toner-type inks or thick color coats.You can either have inline scoring or offline scoring. Offline paper scoring generally produces a better result; it allows better control over width, depth and location of the crease being made. A scoring printing finish is much appreciated with greetings cards, invitations, menus, on-table name tags, folders, and covers for documents.
