Word Count

Word Count helps you monitor document length in real time. It provides the tools you need to check word and character totals while writing, making your work more efficient and helping you accomplish tasks with ease. With Word Count, you can view live statistics for the full document, switch between different counting methods, and set a preferred default based on total word count, total characters including spaces, or total characters excluding spaces. The selected counting method applies only to you and does not affect collaborators. Word Count counts manually entered text, including the document title, while excluding images, tables, cloud documents, contacts, selected-text comments, and full-document comments. Whether you're preparing speeches, reports, or papers, Word Count helps you stay productive and complete tasks efficiently. Choose the documentation below that best matches your needs to learn more.
