Hi there, To be 100% honest, I'd get a free text editor called Bean. It's not available from the app store, however, but you can download it from the following link: http://www.bean-osx.com/Bean.html It's completely accessible with VoiceOver, and is vastly superior to Pages in my opinion, since

For double spacing, and most other kinds of styling, you'll want to use the inspector, by pressing command-option-i. There's a group of radio buttons, and I think you'll want to press “text.” Then under the text tab, you'll see an option that says lines, with the number 1. Change that to 2, and

Hi, No, I've never had Bean crash at all. As far as a word count, I haven't found how to do that yet. If pages gives you all of that info, plus more, I may start using that as my word processor of choice, instead of Bean. I just used a free alternative since I didm know much about Pages. Lol.
