About this course
In this course you quote fictional sign and large-format print jobs, with every cell checked. You convert millimetres into m² and ft² and apply a rounding and minimum-area policy, fit posters across roll widths with INT and ROUNDUP and compare the waste, and count panels per board sheet in both orientations. You look up ink use by quality mode, add laminate with an allowance, turn square metres into machine hours and printing cost, count eyelets and price finishing, estimate installation crews, travel and hire days, and finish with markups, a minimum charge, the margin per job and a chart.
