Hi, Anne,
I see that now. I think I may have gotten myself into an area of the program that dealt with resizing my document. I’m not sure how that happened, but it doesn’t seem to be a problem now. Thanks for the explanation. Take care and have a great day.

Hello Jamie, When you find the Word Count, you’ll see that it’s a button and clicking it will give you other options such as Character count. You find the Word Count button to the right of the document layout area.

Before, I was looking at a Word document that I had brought into Pages, and I was seeing a lot of information that appeared very graphical in nature. Something about rectangles and placeholders. Not sure what was going on there, but after relaunching Pages, I can easily find the word count in a practice document I created plus the original Word file I was playing with. Just thought I’d better write back and let you know that I was having better luck than when I last spoke. Thanks for the help. Take care and have a great day.

It appears as a menu button and pressing VO-Space on it will give you the other options.

An article I read said to use the inspector, but I’m still not finding what I am looking for. Has anyone written a script for this? It seems like it might be a good candidate, but I’m not the guy to do it, I don’t think. Regardless of the method, an explanation of how to get a word count in a document would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help. Take care and have a great day.
