Do pleated filters actually provide better filtration than filters that are not pleated?

The filters media determines the level or quality of filtration that a filter provides. Pleated filters provide two advantages over unpleated filters (1) pleating provides more surface area to a filter, which is one way dirt holding capacity is increased in a filter (2) pleating also helps distribute the air flow over the surface of the filter more evenly.
