Hello. I forgot to count the words in my Microsoft before I convert it to PDF and I can't copy pdf to Microsoft, how can I count words in pdf without downloading something? Â
Hello,
-In the PDF, select Modify > Select all
-When the text is highlighted,drag your cursor up and down to ensure that everything is highlighted then Copy and Paste into Word.
-If there are alot of figures eliminate them in Word using the Find & Replace option (Under Find click on the Other Tab and, at the bottom Special to call up a pull-down menu. Here,select any number)
-Once you have the number symbol (^#) under find select Replace and leave it blank. If you hit replace all, all the numbers will be eliminated.
You can’t possibly count the number of words in PDF documents.
Option: 1
One way of counting is using the JavaScript console in adobe acrobat reader by:
var cnt=0;
for (var p=0; p<this.numpages; p++) cnt += getNumWords(p);
console.println(“There are “ + cnt  + “words in this file. “);
