The Words Per Page Calculator converts a word count into an estimated number of pages for the formatting you choose. It is the fast answer to “how many pages is 2,000 words?” for essays, reports, dissertations and manuscripts — and it runs entirely in your browser.
Words per page by format
The estimates use the widely-cited reference figures for a standard page in 12pt Times New Roman:
| Formatting | Words per page |
|---|---|
| Single spaced | ~500 |
| 1.5 spaced | ~375 |
| Double spaced | ~250 |
So 1,000 words is roughly 2 pages double-spaced or 1 page single-spaced.
Why your real count may differ
These are estimates for plain body text. Headings, bullet lists, block quotes, images, wide margins and larger fonts all push the words-per-page down, so a richly formatted document will fill more pages than the calculator suggests. For a hard page requirement, always check in your word processor.
Everything is calculated locally in your browser — your numbers are never uploaded.
