In page layout and typography, a spread (often redundantly called a two-page spread) is the unit formed by two adjacent, facing pages in a magazine or other publication, featuring a single image (such as a photograph or piece of artwork) or a themed group of images (such as a flowchart or collection of maps). The line down the middle where the pages come together is called the gutter.
A spread in the center of a magazine, where the two pages are one physical piece of paper, is called a center spread.
A gatefold or foldout is a page which folds out beyond the edges of the publication. Gatefolds and foldouts are frequently center spreads, but they need not be.
