What is a "leaf"?
A leaf is a single sheet of paper in a book that is folded to create two pages: one on the front and one on the back. Each leaf contributes to the book's structure, with multiple leaves bound together to form the complete book. The term "leaf" is often used in bookbinding and printing to refer to the physical sheet itself as individual units within the book, rather than the content pages that may have text or illustrations printed on them.
