The paper folds always line up

[Serrand]

Hi there!

How would you say : 'This will help make sure that the paper folds always line up' ?

My try: 'Cela contribuera à ce que le papier se plie toujours tout droit'

The context:
Origami. Be sure to make strong creases in the paper with a fingernail when folding the paper. This will help make sure that the paper folds always line up.

Thanks

Maybe this will help you to understand the construction of the sentence:


...will help make sure that... = ...will help to make sure that...

the paper folds = the folds in the paper ("folds" is a noun here, not a verb)

"to line up" = s'aligner (the subject of "always line up" is the folds)
