Abstract
A woven fabric is used in a machine to produce a fiber web. The woven fabric has a machine direction, a cross machine direction, a paper side and a machine side. The paper side is formed by interwoven warp yarns and weft yarns. The paper side contains a plurality of twill lines, each twill line being formed by a plurality of neighboring flotations of warp yarns. The twill lines contain an MD vector component directed in the machine direction and a CD vector component directed in the cross machine direction. At least some twill lines are diagonal twill lines meaning that the CD vector component is unequal to zero. The plurality of diagonal twill lines contains first diagonal twill lines and second diagonal twill lines, the CD vector components of the first diagonal twill lines have an opposite sign to the CD vector components of the second diagonal twill lines.
