How To Count the
Number of Words in Footnotes in MS Word Documents
Yesterday, we showed you
how to count the number of words in your documents.

count the number of words in footers, headers, or
footnotes?
Where is the Word
Counter?
This word count tool is built into Microsoft Word

Now, you're ready to count the number of words in your
Marketing Plan, Technical Documents, User Guides, or
Business Plans.
And if you're a
freelance writer or make a living working online,
it’s ideal as you can see how many words you’ve written and how many
more you need to make your page count!
How To Count Footnotes
And Endnotes
You can also include footnotes and endnotes in the
count.
If you want to count part of a document rather than
the entire document, Word can count the footnotes or endnotes that refer
to the selected text.
To do this, select the Include Footnotes and
Endnotes option.
How To Count Blocks of
Text
You can also select multiple sections of
text to count. Sections do not have to be next to each other.
