Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about presentation board

How do I set up a tri-fold presentation board?
Simply fold along the pre-scored lines to create a three-panel display that stands freely. The center panel remains stationary while the side panels fold inward at approximately 45-degree angles for stability. No additional supports or hardware are needed - the board is designed to be self-supporting on any flat surface.
What's the difference between 36x48 tri-fold sizes?
The 36x48 measurement refers to the full board size when laid flat. When folded into display position, you get three panels each measuring approximately 16 inches wide by 48 inches tall. This creates an impressive display with ample space for titles, text, images, and charts across the three sections.
Can presentation boards be used outdoors?
Presentation boards are designed for indoor use and brief outdoor exposure only. Wind can easily knock over free-standing boards, and extended UV exposure will cause paper facer deterioration. For outdoor events, secure boards against wind or consider weather-resistant display alternatives designed for exterior use.
Are presentation boards reusable?
Yes, presentation boards can be folded and unfolded multiple times. The precision scoring creates lasting fold lines that won't crack or split with normal use. Store boards flat when not in use to maintain their shape and appearance. With proper care, they can be used for multiple presentations or projects.
How portable are bi-fold presentation boards?
Bi-fold boards are extremely portable. The 9x12 size folds to 6x9 inches and the 15x20 size folds to 10x15 inches - both easily fit in briefcases, backpacks, or portfolios. They're lightweight yet rigid enough to create stable desktop displays for small group presentations or individual meetings.
Can I print directly on presentation boards?
Yes! Presentation boards accept all printing methods including inkjet, laser printing, screen printing, and hand lettering. The premium paper facers provide excellent ink adhesion and color reproduction. You can also mount printed materials using spray adhesive, double-sided tape, or our adhesive-backed foam board options.
