FreeBrowserAbout Text Statistics
Measure text length using visible characters, Unicode code points, words, lines and UTF-8 bytes. Compare the different counts when a publishing or API limit specifies a particular unit.
When to use this tool
- Check a draft against a character limit.
- Measure the UTF-8 size of a text field.
Limits to know before using it
Words use Unicode segmentation, which can differ from publisher rules. Emoji and combined characters can have different visible-character, code-point and byte counts.
