Abstract
An apparatus for forming scorelines in a book cover includes a pair of scoring counter-bars and a pair of scoring tools. Each of the scoring counter-bars include a longitudinal indentation provided therein and each of the scoring tools include a scoring protrusion provided thereon. The scoring protrusion of one of the scoring tools engages the longitudinal indentation of an associated one of the scoring counter-bars so as to form scorelines in the book cover when the book cover is positioned between the scoring counter-bars and the scoring tools.
