Frequently asked questions
- How many words is one page?
- A page is roughly 500 words single-spaced or 250 words double-spaced in a 12-point standard font, though it varies with the font and margins. The converter uses these typical figures and adjusts for the settings you pick.
- Why does double spacing halve the pages?
- Double spacing puts about half as many lines on a page as single spacing, so the same text fills roughly twice the pages. Many assignments require double spacing, which is why the option matters for an accurate estimate.
- Is the page count exact?
- It is an estimate. Actual pages depend on margins, paragraph breaks, headings and the exact font, which differ between documents. Use it as a close guide rather than a guarantee, and check in your word processor for the final count.
- Is anything I type sent to a server?
- No. Everything runs inside your browser, so the work you do here stays on your own device and nothing is uploaded. There is no sign-up and no limit on how many times you use it, and once the page has loaded it keeps working with no connection.
