O
ur Online Copy Counter calculates how many characters (inc. spaces), words and paragraphs are in your manuscript. Copy, or drag the selected text from your word processor to the form far right.
Check that you have all the text in the box, ie the last word should be the last word of your manuscript.
Some word processors and operating systems have a limit on how many characters can be copied. 		If all your text does not go in when you copy and paste try dragging the selected text over rather than copy and paste.
Once you know the number of characters, including spaces, in your manuscript, you can go to the Page Calculator for an estimate of the number of pages that will be in your book.
Don’t worry about the size of the text box – a scroll bar will appear when the text overflows.

Please paste or drag your manuscript into the text box ensuring that all text is there. (See main page for details.)

The accuracy of the result depends on the quality of your text; ie the more double and triple word spaces and multiple blank line returns (paragraphs) you use the less accurate the count will be.
