Abstract (en)
A sheet folding apparatus (1) folds a sheet in parallel a plurality of times. The sheet folding apparatus includes a transport roller pair (3) that transports the sheet; first and second folding roller pairs (6, 7) that are provided with a predetermined gap therebetween and alternately fold the sheet transported from the transport roller pair (3); and first and second sheet detecting units (8, 9) that are provided outside the first and second folding roller pairs (6, 7) so as to face the first and second folding roller pairs (6, 7), respectively. Second and subsequent folding positions of the sheet are set based on an amount of transport of the sheet that is determined on the basis of an end of the sheet (F0) or a first folding end (F1).
