We're a small publishing company specializing in graphic novels (basically books) and need a folder. Would anyone have any suggestions on what folder would be best for us to use?

Hi, I really can't advice you a particilar model but those who can will ask you about what kind of stock are planning on running coated / uncoated, type of fold you need to make ( most complex one )... You may need to specify type of a jobs etc... Good luck.

Folders can be expensive and take a lot of space.
Tabletop parallel folders are available for much under $500.
Folders capable of right-angle folds are costly.
You might be better off getting folding done at a bindery and doing your
own stitching or binding as needed. How large are your signatures?

It all depends on the thickness of the paper you are folding, the type of fold you need and how often you need to use it. I have a lot of experience with paper folders, so PM me with any questions.
For a good all-round brand, I have always had luck with Duplo and Dynafold. Check these out:

Good luck!

There are many choices and it all depends on your volume, type of folds, stock type e.g. coated, uncoated, laser? Visit http://copyfinishing.com/collators.htm for lots of info regarding low to high volume models. Since it doesn't sound like you have had a folder before, you might want to look at the models with automatic setup. With these paper folders, you simply select your paper size and fold type and the fold plates and gates will adjust automatically. Ask for Chuck at 888-237-3221, if you need to dig deeper to nail down the best fit for your needs.
