I know this comment is a year old, and I haven’t tried this myself, but I heard you can alternate between folding the bottom part of the space and the top instead of doing both in one fold
Great and very helpful presentation...I have two questions where can I find these stripes templates? And how can we fold a book when we have a template with more than one word? Thank you!!!
Thanks. Very exciting. I can't do this in word 10 so I'm going to reinstall an older version of word and cross my fingers. Thanks for the templates. AUSTRALIA.
@@dedeghsayank There's an easier way. Go to my website diymarta.com and look for free striped backgrounds. You can print out the background and just write on it. Then use that as your pattern.
I want to start with book folding, but one thing I don't understand: Sometimes you have to fold multiple pages for one line, because there are multiple breaks in the design. Doesn't this mess up the design? do you have to multiply all the other lines to even it out? How does this work?
Great observation, but you never fold more than one page per line. My other videos will show how to fold and create the final illusion that all the pieces are folded.
Hi Marta! I am really struggling with Gimp and making my word have the correct 554 lines. Even when I fill my word with one of your images (which maybe I am doing wrong) I can only get 146 total lines in my word. I am looking everywhere for answers and I don't know what to do. Any help at all would be amazing. I'm almost at the point of drawing my own lines by hand....
Thank you for this great tutorial, and your others on how to cut and fold a book. I am about to create my first folded book but wonder if I am misunderstanding something. In this video the number of lines in your word art does not seem to match the number from the filename of the picture you have selected. For example: There are approximately 160 lines in the word "Book" so I assume that would need a 320 page book, but you selected the 616 page image as your fill. I downloaded the 440PageBG.jpg file and it only has about 100 lines in it. I have instead used a fill pattern for my own design and counted 240 lines on my printout, so I believe I would need a 480 page book? Is that correct? And if so what might I need to do to make your predefined striped images give the actual count in MS Word so it would match the number in the filename?
Hello Marta, I really like your videos, and your creative ideas 😊 Now I have a book with 1000 pages, and I also made a pattern with 550 and 792 lines, that you created. Does it mean that I have to use 550 lines or 792 (close to 1000)? Thank you!
If you used my striped backgrounds for your patterns, then use the 792 pages one (not "lines"). That background actually has 396 stripes--each stripe corresponding to one sheet in a book. Each page in a book has two page numbers--front and back, so the 396 stripes will use 792 numbered pages. Clear as mud?
This is great; but I could not fill the word with the windows 10 or 13. It does not give you an option to insert from a file. If you found a way using windows 10 or 13, please let me know. Thank you!
@@Diymarta do you know if there is anyway to get the lines to be tighter together? I'm using power point now but when i insert your photo i only get about 35 lines per letter

!!Thank you very much ??But can you please send a link to the final result of the words I tried very hard but I couldn't do it, and I want to make one for my mom birthday .Please answer as soon as possible
Hi Marta, I got a question for ya! So I got a book with 1108 pages total and I am making a word that is 8 letters long with 1 capital letter. So that means I need 554 stripes for my word. Is that correct?
@@Diymarta yay! Thank you so much! What do recommend for making the stripe pattern? I used PowerPoint last time but it didn’t turn out well :/ Do you have a video for Gimp or photoshop?
Thank you for your tutotial, but MS Word didnt work for me, althogh I have one of the last versions, I could not find how to format the Word Art, I tried inserting a picture (any just to see how it worked as of course I do not a picture with the stripes like yours) and it came but outside of the text instead of inside of the letters, so the text stay blank all the time
My daughter tried this. She saved her "words" from MS Word 2010 as Word 2007...ultimately, your computer sees it as a compatibility view and all the word art options become available to you...After you save it as an older version, then you can move on in the process of filling in the lines!
For your templates provided - When you say "440 page background" does that mean a 440 page book? Or 440 stripes? I know with 440 paged books that means we have 220 pieces of paper to fold
Hello DIY Marta , I have a bit Confusion , Can we Do Video Calls ? So I can clear my confusion ! Are you on Facebook or any other suitable app for video Conferencing, let me know please, thankyou ❤
Love your video and it helps but for some reason I can't get the number of stripes to be correct, even when using the highest number. I have a book that's 574 pages, which would be 287 foldable pages. Even when I add the 792 page background, I don't have enough pages to fold, I end up with a pattern that has 195 foldable pages with 92 pages left over. I suppose the easiest thing to do would be get a smaller book :)
You tell why you had 616 strips...you are not telling why you need this and that . Your instructions are not accurate or detailed...too much guess work. How do we I am know how many strips I need.
Love this! Thank you!
I don't have access to PS so is there any way to get hold of the pictures you used?
The one's for patterns?
Thank's again!
Do you have a tutorial to show how to use the pattern to fold? Does each stripe equal a page?
@@annettereed6146 I do. Look for diymarta striped patterns on UA-cam. And, yes, both the white and black stripes are a page.
how do you fold holes, like in the B or O?
I know this comment is a year old, and I haven’t tried this myself, but I heard you can alternate between folding the bottom part of the space and the top instead of doing both in one fold
Great and very helpful presentation...I have two questions where can I find these stripes templates? And how can we fold a book when we have a template with more than one word? Thank you!!!
How do I show vertical metric measurements that I apply to the folding
I don't. I insert the image behind the page I'm going to fold and use the image to mark where the fold is.
Thank you for sharing! I appreciate it! Have an awesome day!
Thanks. Very exciting. I can't do this in word 10 so I'm going to reinstall an older version of word and cross my fingers. Thanks for the templates. AUSTRALIA.
Great to see how this is done...however, any videos on how to this same exact thing for Microsoft 365 Word? I will keep looking.
How do I make the lines? Is there a way to do so on MSO? Is there a measurement between the lines?
The easiest way is to download a free striped background from my website diymarta.com
Hi, do you have tried to fold it ? is it a good pattern in word ? thanks
Can you put a link to download this program? Thanks...
Where did you get the saved striped image?
They are free on my website. See the details below the video.
What is the right size for making a pettern for folding books, thanks
A regular 8.5 x 11 sheet of printer paper is all I ever use.
@@Diymarta thanks Miss marta

Are you counting both black and white stripes? Each stripe is two numberes pages (back and front of one sheet )

What version of Word did you use in this video? I tried following this on Microsoft Word 2010, but had a difficult time.
Augiegrl12 It was in Office XP I believe. There should be similar commands in newer versions. Keep experimenting.
I started it in Word 10 but saved it as a 2003 version, then it worked as her video shows :)
I don't seem to have the fill with a photo option in my version of word :/
UPDATE I found the fill with picture option but instead of filling my word art, it filled in everything except....
What version of Word is this? i cant figure out how to do it on the 2013 version
I think it was 2007. I use Gimp now (free software)

How may pages are required for a 6 letter word
Aman Jain I like to estimate 100 numbered pages per letter. But that's on the high side. You could do it in 450 pages.

Go to Etsy and find PompandWhimsy. You can order custom patterns if you want.

how to you make the remade patterns? I have a book that is 176 pages.
falon jakel
There isn't much you can make with that few pages. Most patterns use at least 400 pages
DIYMarta I guess I was confused, your lowest stripe pattern worked for my book
falon jakel
What pattern did you make?
DIYMarta just a simple LOVE (Arial font) using Mic word, for my daughter to make for a friend.

this is great but can you show us how to make the striped background
Lisalollipop2108 In the description box of this video, she has given us the links to FREE downloads of her stripe files (in PDFs)! 👍🏻👍🏻
for the templates you provided is each page a stripe or is it half as many stripes because its for that many page book?
An na Each stripe is one sheet of paper in a book which is two numbered pages.
How large do we have to make the back round depending on the number of pages in the book?
the number of pages determines the number of stripes. size is just as big as you can get it

I had the same results with clipart. So far I only know how to do words and numbers. Try right-clicking on the wordart to see the format options.

how did you make your lined paper
watch my other tutorial on stripes in photoshop.
For your templates provided - When you say "440 page background" does that mean a 440 page book? Or 440 stripes? I know with 440 paged books that means we have 220 pieces of paper to fold
That's correct
Meaning, 440 numbered pages
excuse me I am new to this but why would there be 220 pages to fold in a 440 page book?
Crystalina - Sorry; this is really late, but 220 pages means that there are 440 NUMBERED pages, so there are 220 physical pages.
thank you! this helped me so much :)
