Frequently asked questions
Why does my scanned PDF show zero words?
A scan is only a picture, so there is no text to count. Run OCR on the file first to add a text layer, then count again.
How is the reading time worked out?
It divides the word count by an average adult reading speed, so it is an estimate. Technical or dense text takes longer, while light reading goes faster. Treat it as a rough guide.
Are words in headers and footers counted?
Repeated headers, footers and page numbers are part of the page text, so they can add to the total. For an exact figure of the main text, remove them from your source document and export again.
Is PDF word counter free?
Yes. PDF word counter on Toolipedia is free to use, with no sign-up and no watermark.
