Full disclosure: I work for a pipe and drape company.
Measuring for pipe and drape is easy. All you need to know is the height, linear width, and amount of fullness needed.
There's a greater explanation on drapekings.com, but in quick summary:
Say you have a 10 foot by 10 foot room and you want to drape all four walls.
The height: 10 feet
The linear width: 10 feet x 4 walls = 40 feet
Your dimensions would be 10' by 40'.
Fullness is a longer explanation. Just go to the site and read the explanation there.
