I am not sure that this is the right place to post this question, so I will be happy to let any moderator move it. (I would be less happy to find out that the question has no place in PF, but I would accept it.)
I have been asked to make a list of American manufacturers of plates for flexographic printing, along with the capacity of each one. The "one" is ambiguous (manufacturer or plate), but since the person who requires this list suggests that capacity is in square meters per year, I infer that she is thinking of the capacity of production, not the capacity of an individual plate. But said person is an engineer not well versed in this area, so I have been looking for the dimensions (units) used to correctly characterize the capacity of a factory, without success. (How to find out this number is another chapter, but if I can't even specify the units of the quantity I am asking about, I would never get to that chapter.)
