    Continuing on from the previous post which had problems : https://creativepro.com/topic/calculation-of-paragraph-lengths-in-a-document

    I said:
    This is exactly what I was looking for. With a slight modification I can also use your script to count the characters:
    report.push (‘Par. ‘ + k + ‘:’ + par[k].characters.length); Here is part of that (word / character count) result (obviously, with many words, there are many characters as well)

    Par. 795: 0 1
    Par. 796: 12 71
    Par. 797: 254 1572
    Par. 798: 110 628
    Par. 799: 0 1
    Par. 800: 10 58
    Par. 801: 49 323

    Now let’s say, paragraph 797 contains more characters/words than our publication guidelines allow, is there any way in indesign to jump / go to paragraph 797 ?

    Thanks A lot for your generous help,

    Hartelijke groeten,

    Bart.

    Still doesn’t work. Maybe there’s something in that script I include that throws off the forum software. Why don’t you give me your email address and I’ll send it straight to you. We’ve been spending enough time on this by now.

    I did that, Ahmad. It didn’r work. But we sorted it out outside the forum.

    My apologies for the forum problem. I updated the previous forum thread.
