• The table below shows orthographic projections from the 5-fold (red), 3-fold (yellow) and 2-fold (blue) symmetry axes.
• Folding a paper more than once in the same direction (i.e. with parallel creases) is called parallel folding. Common examples of this are the half fold, letter fold, gate fold, and Z-fold.
• Globin superfamily members share a common three-dimensional fold.
• The Miura fold is related to the Kresling fold, the Yoshimura fold and the Hexagonal fold, and can be framed as a generalization of these folds.
• The crystallographic restriction theorem in its basic form was based on the observation that the rotational symmetries of a crystal are usually limited to 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, and 6-fold.

• Rotational twin laws are almost always 2-fold rotations, though any other permitted rotation symmetry (3-fold, 4-fold, or 6-fold) is possible. The twin axis will be perpendicular to a lattice plane.
• Nevertheless, many web advertising companies require ads be placed above the fold.
• Folds can have a "fold axis". A fold axis “is the closest approximation to a straight line that when moved parallel to itself, generates the form of the fold.” (Ramsay 1967).
• The AGATA detectors are Ge-detectors that are 36-fold segment with six-fold azimuthal and six-fold longitudinal segmentation.
• Fold-over or "tent" cards, and side fold cards are popular as well. Generally these cards will fold to the standard size.

• Also known as a spiral fold, trifold, brochure fold, business letter, C fold, roll fold and barrel fold.
• Folding machines exclusively used for folding paper are commonly referred to as paper folders.
• 2-fold rotational symmetry [...]+, 2-fold rotoreflection [...], and central point symmetry [...] as a 2-fold double rotation.
