Claim 4:
5. The sheet post-processor according to claim 4, wherein
the to-be-folded part is set on a center of the sheet in the conveying direction,
the control portion performs a two-folding process including:
a step in which, in a state where the first folding guide is disposed at the folding position, the first assist roller pair is rotated forwardly so that the sheet is conveyed to the first folding nip between the first folding guide and the second roller and so that the to-be-folded part of the sheet that has passed through the first folding nip is opposed to the second folding nip; and
a step in which the second folding guide is moved in a direction toward the second folding nip so as to contact the sheet, and thus the to-be-folded part of the sheet is guided to the second folding nip and is passed through the second folding nip.
