Just for grins, I just tried installing the Japanese localized version on the
theory that maybe some extra Asian counting functionality might be included. 
But, no dice -- apparently the only difference is in the localized UI.  I still
get the same laughably nonsensical counts.  

I think I'll go see if Lotus Symphony has made any headway...

Erroneous counts of mixed Asian-Western texts identical in OOo 3.1.  Almost six
years for this bug in total, and over five years since the Asian issues were
raised.  

And we have seen essentially zero progress in all that time.  

I can only hope that the Oracle acquisition might mean changes for this 
project.

@olhat --

If you can get IBM's Lotus Symphony to install (somewhat complicated on Fedora
9, for instance), you *can* count Asian chars + Western chars in a single doc
from within Linux.  LS is based on the OOo 1.x code branch, and so has issues
that OOo no longer does, but I still find LS very useful just for this counting
functionality.  

I suppose it's possible that Abiword or one of the other FOSS packages that also
handle .odt files might likewise be able to count mixed CJK + Western texts --
time to experiment!

I've been grappling with the non-existing count of Asian characters for weeks
and must use MS Word whenever I really want to count them.  I admire the
patience of Erikanderson3 who has kept the torch on this matter for five years
and not even lost his manners yet.

For me personally, I most often do not need the exact count of characters so I
have made a rule of thumb for me “count – 15 %” that is close to correct or just
count the number of pages and get about as accurate an answer. 

Linux carries almost an endless variety of Chinese type fonts and not a single
way of counting them except for MS Word virtualizations.

Hi!

I 'm looking for a fix for Indic script(Indian languages). Word count is almost
double in OO Writer compared to MS Word. When can we get this fixed?

Do avoid further confusion I adjusted the summary to reflect the direction the
discussion in this issue has taken.

Andreas, can we make a plan if and when we can work on this?
