You can also use the Word Count function in Microsoft Winword to obtain a price estimate for the text to be translated, as follows:
 
  1. Open Winword and retrieve the document to be translated.
  2. Click on the drop-down menu Extras.
  3. Select Word Count.
  4. The menu which appears shows various statistics. On the line which reads Characters (with spaces) note the number and divide it by 55 to obtain the number of lines.
