another way to think of this problem is formatting pages as if you're going to 
make a paperback book. Once you put in a hard break (which word processor should 
do automatically), you generate the next page (HTML or paper). I expect one 
could create the approximate word count by using a stylesheet with a restricted 
page size.  next trick being splitting them into separate pages.
