What's the standard words-per-page?

A standard page holds ~250 words (double-spaced, 12pt Times New Roman, 1" margins) or ~500 words (single-spaced). Book pages are different — see below.

How do I convert pages to words?

Toggle the direction in the calculator. Multiply pages × 250 for double-spaced or × 500 for single-spaced. The calculator does this both ways automatically — words to pages and pages to word count are reciprocal modes of the same tool.

How many pages is 400 / 700 / 2400 words?

Double-spaced (12pt TNR): 400 words ≈ 1.6 pages, 700 words ≈ 2.8 pages, 2400 words ≈ 9.6 pages. Single-spaced halves these numbers. Use the calculator above for exact values at your spacing and font.

How many pages is 8000, 12000, 16000, or 20000 words?

Double-spaced: 8000 ≈ 32 pages, 12000 ≈ 48 pages, 16000 ≈ 64 pages, 20000 (20k) ≈ 80 pages. Single-spaced: halve these.

How many pages is 70000, 75000, or 80000 words (a novel)?

Manuscript-style (double-spaced 12pt TNR): 70k ≈ 280 pages, 75k ≈ 300 pages, 80k ≈ 320 pages. In a printed paperback novel (book-page mode, ~300 words/page), 70k ≈ 233 pages, 75k ≈ 250 pages, 80k ≈ 267 pages.

What is book-page mode (text to book page converter)?

Printed books fit roughly 250–300 words per page depending on trim size, font, and leading. Toggle book-page mode for a realistic estimate of your novel's printed length, separate from manuscript double-spaced pages.
