Swedish term or phrase: omlottfalsning
För alla format gäller U- fals ( omlottfalsning , falsning med helrygg).

This appears in a document about machine-printed letters and machines for stuffing envelopes. Actually, a translation suggestion for both "omlottfalsning" and "helrygg" would also be helpful. Thank you!
