On the A the side in Triton, they use adjusted units and some whacky formula - so typed is not same as edited Posted: Oct 27th, 2016 - 11:58 am In Reply to: Line count crazy! - A-MT
Triton does that weird unit thing. For me, the actual production units usually come out to be about 30% less than what my total actual line count is. I guess they adjust some fraction out for edited vs straight type and then take away counts for the headings and subheadings on all the files, which still just seems crooked as h*ll to me, and on some of my files can be as much as a 32-cent difference with the headings/subheadings removed. That really adds up! Then you have those crazy templates where file comes in as an edit job, you insert a template but then basically have to straight type the entire thing anyway because the template is such a mess. I guess that's another issue but it certainly is a hindrance to production!
