Rationale:
Mathematics is used at various levels in the process of Printing,
which include, Copy-fitting methods, calculation of Paper &
Ink consumption, Mathematical formulae for pre-press activities,
costing & estimating and a lot more. All these processes require
precision functioning, which can be carried out if mathematical
calculations are known. This course also is a backbone of research
& development of Technology.
