Folding avoidance in skeletal stroke application is provided. In some embodiments, folding avoidance in skeletal stroke application includes identifying a destination path for a source artwork and a plurality of ribs extending perpendicularly from the destination path, in which the source artwork is mapped onto the destination path; determining a contiguous region along the destination path including a subset of ribs; in which each of the subset of ribs in the contiguous region crosses another rib in the contiguous region that is not necessarily an adjacent rib; and adjusting each of the subset of ribs in the contiguous region so that each of the ribs no longer crosses another rib in the contiguous region to provide a modified subset of ribs. Accordingly, the source artwork can then be adapted to fit along the destination path using the adjusted ribs.
