Hello,
I'm currently writing a novel, or at least trying to, and I've quickly looked online for a conversion from A4 pages to a pocket book format. It’s more about signs; on Word, I've checked and I'm at 98 pages, 52,227 words, 252,448 characters without spaces, and finally 304,307 characters including spaces. Knowing that I use the font "Book Antiqua 10", how many pages of a pocket book could that approximately correspond to?
Thank you in advance
Barbara

      Hello, thank you for your response. Are you talking about pocket-sized pages? That would be 122 pages? If that's the case, I still have a lot of work to do...
