As a software tool, Text Count offers unparalleled control over word counts, oversets, and space assigning in both InDesign and InCopy documents. With a range of functionalities, it is capable of counting up to eight different text items within a variety of selection ranges.

One of the key features of Text Count is its real-time count and estimate results, which are displayed clearly in the program's info panel. In addition, the software offers three new functions for managing overset text, eliminating the need for dummy text or copy-pasting to external programs for word count estimates.

Text Count also estimates the number of text elements in empty frames based on styles set in frame and document language averages. This allows users to adjust the size of frames to fit their desired word count, resulting in more efficient space and copy assigning.

The program can be used in panel format, providing real-time counts and estimates, or in comprehensive reports that display all desired data in a separate document. This feature makes it easy to pass on information to finance departments for freelance payments.

One key difference between Text Count and InDesign's built-in text info panel is that Text Count shows counts at all times, not just when the text tool is selected. Additionally, Text Count counts four more text elements and performs estimates and price calculations, making it the only plug-in on the market with these features.

Text Count's overset control tools can dramatically improve users' production processes. Some of its key features include overset text displaying in a separate frame attached to the overset story, automatic preflight to save time and prevent mistakes, and the ability to fit text to frame by changing text attributes within a permitted range.

For counting, Text Count offers functionalities such as character counts (including and excluding spaces), word counts, line counts, paragraph counts, manuscript line counts, manuscript page counts, and overflow counts. It can count in selection, paragraph, text frame, story, page, and the whole document.

Along with counting, Text Count offers estimate features that allow users to estimate characters and words needed to fill text chains or frames, using defined styles and document language. It can estimate in text chains that are either empty or have some remaining space.

Finally, Text Count's price calculation features allow it to calculate price per stroke, word, manuscript line or page, and price per article (based on word count range). It also allows users to define their preferred currency, displaying results in both the application palette and a report with an indexed copy of the counted document and all desired data about its content. Overall, Text Count is an invaluable software tool for anyone who wants to have precise control over word count, oversets, and space assigning in their InDesign or InCopy documents.
