FVS (X) Apr 5, 2011:
Looked it up. A post binder is like a rigid spine which goes through the holes in the paper to make a sort of book. It can then be read like a book. There must be a specific term in Spanish but I haven't time to look it up.
Marina Puertas Apr 5, 2011:
Taking that into account, I'd rather use "archivadores" then
FVS (X) Apr 5, 2011:
ficheros is too likely to confused with ficheros in informatica.
Marina Puertas Apr 5, 2011:
They can be called "ficheros", "archivadores" or "carpetas archivadoras". Translator is the one who decides!
FVS (X) Apr 5, 2011:
There is a picture of them here http://www.blacksmithsjournal.com/view-BOOK-SPB.html

no idea what they are called in Spanish.

Peer comment(s):
neutral FVS (X) : sounds good. actually I am not sure. This may refer to 'bound volumes' which is not the same thing. // your first link is not appropriate. It is not these at all. Your second link is spot on but there must be a separate name for these in Spanish, no??

See for yourself the pictures I enclose. I think carpeta archivadora is generic enough... Thanks a lot!
