For the first copy, I tried using the creaser in the digital print room, it did not work properly as the creases were too thick and the creaser in the print room is slightly offset. Therefore, I decided to try put it aside and try folding the pages on another copy.
For the second copy, I tried scoring the pages with a cutter. it kind of worked, turned out really clean, but still not perfect.
I then stuck the pages together with the tabs overlapping the third pages, I tried to align the words and it was quite successful.
On the other hand, the final product did not turn out looking like a concertina at all. All of the pages were shifted to the left.
I was so disappointed. I spent so much time worrying about the printing outcome and tried my best to fix the document and get prepared for printing. But then it still did not turn out perfectly. The 'concertina' did not even fit into the box and everything failed.
CONCLUSION
- when alignments of the text are accurate, the pages are shifted.
- when pages are aligned well, the alignments are shifted.
FINAL EXECUTION
As this brief emphasises on the production method, I decided to give up the content accuracy.
I therefore decided to in order make the book at least looks like a concertina, I gave up the alignments of text. I used the first copy (which is being creased not properly) and tried making it again, despite all the wrongly creased marks. It then turned out to finally looking like concertina, however, the users will not be able to read the text properly. It can then finally be placed inside the box properly.
