I'm working on a term paper, and I need to hit a minimum of 5,000 characters, including spaces. Now, I can't exactly sit here counting every single letter and symbol one by one to see where I stand. Is there an easy way to check this on a computer? Maybe if I copy the text into Microsoft Word and save the file, it will show me somewhere? I think I heard once that one character equals roughly one byte or something like that... Does anyone know?
I’ve run into an urgent issue: I'm trying to insert a few images into my document. I found them online and pasted them directly into the file, but they absolutely have to be exactly 3cm x 3cm. When I go to Format Picture -> Size and manually input those dimensions, the image just shrinks to some random size instead of what I actually typed. It's nowhere near the target. Why won't it stay at the size I set? What am I doing wrong?
I even tried saving them from the web to My Documents first, then copying them into Microsoft Word from there to adjust the sizing, but I get the exact same result. Help! This is pretty urgent since I'm finishing up a term paper that's due very soon... any ideas?🙏
