## How many words is a page?

In the standard academic format — 12-point Times New Roman, one-inch margins — a single-spaced page holds about 500 words and a double-spaced page about 250. So 1,000 words is roughly two single-spaced or four double-spaced pages. The exact figure shifts with font, size, and spacing, which is why this is an estimate.

## Why page counts are only estimates

Pages are not a fixed unit the way words are: headings, lists, images, line spacing, and font choice all change how much text fits. When an assignment is set in pages, the safest move is to confirm the expected word count with your instructor and write to that.

## Write to a page target

If your assignment asks for “three pages, double-spaced,” aim for around 750 words and let the live page estimate confirm you are in range as you write — no need to keep reformatting a document to check.
