A page count is not a quote, and a quote without hours is a guess.
Turn a page count, a per-page time, and a document count into minutes, hours, and six-hour days of work.
Accessibility leads and contractors sizing a tagging or remediation job.
Use the source document or official route that applies to your situation. This guide does not contact another person or verify external information.
Count the pages that carry content. Cover pages with only a logo take less time.
Tag one representative page and time it. Tables and forms take longer than text.
Count the files in the job. Note which ones share a template.
Multiply the pages by the minutes and by the documents. Divide by 60 for hours.
Divide the hours by your productive day length. Six hours is a realistic figure for focused tagging.
Forty pages at 4 minutes a page across 3 documents is 160 minutes each, 8.0 hours in total, and 1.3 six-hour days.
Use your own source and details. The example is not a record about a real person or organization.
