I am working on a tent card design and wondered if anyone knows of a resource for knifelines?

On another note what do you all say knifeline or dieline and is there a difference?

My understanding is that they're the same, although I've only heard people use dieline.

What's the diecut for? Is it the style with a little folded tab that keeps it nice and rigid?

I doubt this is the case but if you have to also make the tent card (ie: print, cut and fold them), doing a LIGHT score with the BACK of an Exacto knife on the front of the print is the perfect way to get a straight and clean fold on the tent card.
