About this tool
The Words to Pages Converter is a free, in-browser estimator that turns a word count into a page count — or a page requirement back into a word target. Choose the font, point size and line spacing to match your assignment and the estimate updates instantly; you can also paste text to count its words automatically.
Estimates are based on the standard benchmark of about 500 words per single-spaced page (250 double-spaced) in 12-point Times New Roman on US Letter with 1-inch margins, adjusted for the font and size you pick.
Everything runs locally in your browser; pasted text is never uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
How many words is one page?
Roughly 500 words single-spaced or 250 words double-spaced in 12-point Times New Roman with standard margins — the figures this converter scales from.
Why does my actual document differ slightly?
Headings, paragraph breaks, margins and long words all shift the real count, so treat the result as a close estimate rather than an exact layout.
Can I convert pages back to words?
Yes. Switch the direction to pages → words to see the word target for an assignment like 'write 5 double-spaced pages'.
Which fonts and settings are supported?
Times New Roman, Arial, Calibri and Verdana at 10–14 pt with single, 1.5 or double spacing — the combinations used in most academic style guides.
