* Font: Different fonts have different character widths. Times New Roman, for example, takes up less space than Arial.
* Font Size: A 12pt font will take up more space than a 10pt font.
* Margins: The size of your margins (top, bottom, left, right) will affect the number of words per page. Standard margins are usually 1 inch.
* Line Spacing: While you mentioned double-spaced, there are slight variations in line spacing that can change the word count per page.
However, here's a general estimate:
* Standard settings: With a 12pt font (Times New Roman), 1-inch margins, and double spacing, you can expect roughly 5-6 pages for 2500 words.
To get a more accurate estimate:
1. Type your document in the specific format you're using.
2. Use the "Word Count" feature in your word processor. This will give you the exact page count for your particular document.
Remember, this is just an estimate. The actual page count may vary slightly based on your specific formatting choices.
