Haha! Well, one must splimy assume that MS is capable of stripping out formatting and count the characters in their own formats. I would personally feel most comfortable about creating a PDF and then manually copy/paste the parts I want counted into a Unicode text document and then count the characters with a Unicode aware program. But it's so much trouble and it takes so damn long. ;-pThe problem is, if you're too generous when counting chars, then you might get in trouble if the professor, who's reading your paper, decides to check the number of chars in your specific paper. (I know, it barely ever happens, but you could fail an exam just because you slacked a little with the char.-counting.)Btw, I just noticed. WordPress converts tripple-dashes to an m-dash (or emdash) just like LaTeX! Nice!
