Open your FrameMaker file, next go to:

File > Utilities > Document Reports > (select:) WordCount > Run

that\'s all!

Thank you very much. Found it. This function even suggests 28,000 words. Someone must be counting wrong ;-)

Best regards,

Hi,

How do I count words in FrameMaker 5.5? I did a wordcount with IBM Translation Manager but it gets me about 20,000 words whereas the client's said something about 10,000. I also tried to import the mif-file into DVX but the import never finishes it just gets stuck half way through.

I did not try Trados 5.5 because I did not upgrade Workspace when I upgraded Workbench from Version 3.0 and I cannot find the file right now I need for this upgrade.

Is there another possibility? The file is quite big (50 MB).

Thank your for any hint.

Best regards,
