Have any other students on this list noticed this? Does LaTeX do things
so
differently from the popular word processors?
One thing to note when it comes to fonst: The font size does only tell you
the height. It does not tell you the width, nor things like x-height which
normally are quite

A doublspaced paper, with 1in margins all around, at 12pt Times New Roman,
1500 words, is about 5 pages in LyX.
However, when a professor asks for a 1500 word essay, he says 1500 words
(6-7 pages). This is a more or less consistent trend: whatever the ex[ected
page count, the word count is
Perhaps you should include a short note on the front of the paper about a
wordcount being available for him/her should that be an issue, along with an
invitation to try out the program that created such a good-looking finished
product?
Seriously though, I don't know what it is about (La)Tex but
Believe thee me, I have no complaints, nor have professors complained. It's
just that when a professor makes no recommendations about word count, but
specifies only pages, then I am writing that many more words than anyone
else. It also means that the professor is reading that many more words
Did you consider using 12 pt instead of 10 (wich is default AFAIK) as font
size.
