Hi, just wondering if anyone can tell me the suggested number of pages a word
document should be. I know that there is a maximum that microsoft suggest,
however, i cannot find it anywhere.

Thanks,
Samantha
 
The maxiumum number of pages will depend on what is on them - but documents
of thousands of pages are not unknown.

Hi Samantha,

There is no page limit, as such. There are many other limits, though, which
will ultimately determine how many pages a given document can have. See
'Limits for Word' in the Word help file.

Cheers
PS: You'll probably see a 'Maximum file size' limit of 32Mb, or something
such. AFAIK that refers to the number of characters - I have Word files with
embedded graphics far exceeding 32Mb in size.
 
MS is quite specific that the 32 MB limitation applies to text only.
