About This Tool
This tool counts characters, words, lines, byte sizes, and manuscript pages in your text in real-time.
- Characters (with spaces): Counts all characters including spaces and line breaks.
- Characters (no spaces): Counts only characters, excluding spaces and line breaks.
- Words: Counts words separated by spaces or line breaks.
- Lines: Counts the number of lines (empty lines are not counted).
- Byte Counts: Shows the size of your text in different encoding formats.
- UTF-8: Standard web encoding format
- UTF-16: Used in JavaScript and some programming languages
- Shift-JIS: Common Japanese encoding in Windows environments
- EUC-JP: Japanese encoding used in UNIX-like environments
- JIS (ISO-2022-JP): Japanese encoding used for email
- Manuscript Pages: Calculates how many 400-character manuscript pages (20×20) your text corresponds to.
Note: Byte counts for Japanese encodings (Shift-JIS, EUC-JP, JIS) are estimated based on character types.
