Diecutting is a process which uses steel
rules to cut shapes from paper and other materials to achieve visual and/or functional
results. Examples include presentation folders, folding cartons, hospital charts, door
hangers, table tents, telephone or keyboard templates, and the like. Press scoring runs on
a letterpress which uses a rule to impress or indent a mark in paper to make folding
easier. Press scoring reduces fiber breakage along folds. Scoring rules can be included in
the steel rule die used to do the die cutting.
