We generally work on a flat rate per hour for transcription,
a flat rate per page embossed, and set charges for binding,
shipping, etc..
When we explain this to potential clients, it gives us a
very good opportunity to talk to them about how documents
can be prepared such that it saves us time, and them money.
We usually then ask them for a sample document, which can be
quite revealing.
The cruncher is usually when you give them the price for all
but the transcription cost, and then an estimate of what
will be added for that.

Subject: [duxuser] by the page or by the hour
I've read the thread dealing with less-than-wonderful
original word processing files with interest for I like so
many others have spent a lifetime in cleaning up bad files
so they can be transcribed into braille.
For those braille producers who charge for each document, do
you charge a flat rate for the number of braille pages or do
you figure in the processing time it took to come up with a
good transcription or a little bit of both?
