Hi,


I've known for a while now that LO Writer's words counts and MS Word counts are close but not the same. I was entering an asterisked scene break just now and noticed the word count increased by three. A little experimenting revealed that Writer counted three asterisks as words. This would account for some of the differing word counts between the two. I've noticed it happening in other areas I haven't narrowed down yet.


What all exactly does LO Writer count as words? To a story writer words counts mean something.


Thank you.
