Thanks. Now I have a new problem (for me) for which I am almost sure there
will be no tool for. First, for one of the journals that my paper could be
submitted to, a word count goes a long way but for another (PNAS) it seems
that they have a total character limit (words, spaces - including spaces
between words and so forth, but also the space taken up by figures and
tables).
I'll ask anyway...is there a tool/means of counting not only the words, but
also the total number of characters in a document? I'll not worry about the
space taken by figures and tables since they can be scaled down (to a point)
as needed. A word count gives me 5500, so a rough guestimate of characters
is at least twice that amount...
