Questions, answered

How do I find the word count of an EPUB?

Select your EPUB and the tool extracts readable chapter text locally, then counts its words and characters.

Why is the count different from a manuscript?

An EPUB may include front matter, copyright text, footnotes, or bonus chapters that were not included in the original manuscript count.

How are pages estimated?

Because EPUB text is reflowable, it has no fixed pages. We estimate print pages using approximately 275 words per page.
