The process before starting the printing process is called pre printing cost, and the processing program after printing is called post printing processing cost.

The processing and production of any printed matter cannot be separated from the process of design and plate making. The so-called design and plate making refers to the process in which a plate making company or printing factory receives the original manuscript from the printing unit and processes the positive image according to the customer's requirements (now commonly known as film in the industry, which is a transliteration of Flm and was previously popular in Hong Kong and Macao, but has now been accepted by the entire industry). The pre press expenses specifically include: typing, design, scanning, production, output of film or sulfuric acid paper, proofing (inkjet proofing, laser proofing), electronic sorting, electronic sorting, receiving, proofreading, and other expenses. Some also include transportation costs.

The design level of different companies varies, and the fees also vary. The design fees vary from region to region. The design fees in the printing industry are relatively low compared to advertising companies. Some companies combine the design fee with the cost of samples and film, such as 200-500 yuan per page, including samples and film. The unit here is the page, often referred to as P in the industry. P is the first letter of the page, which refers to the size of the A4 page. This is also a commonly used billing unit for digital printing.
