Zeichen zählen

Zeichen und Wörter im Browser zählen

Zählen Sie Zeichen mit/ohne Leerzeichen, Wörter, Zeilen, Absätze und UTF-8-Bytes ohne Upload.

What each metric means

Character counts use Unicode code points. Spaces follow Unicode whitespace. Lines respect CRLF/LF/CR. Paragraphs are non-empty blocks separated by blank lines.

Unicode code points, not grapheme clusters

Emoji with skin tones or combining marks may count as multiple code points. We do not claim grapheme-cluster counting.

Multilingual word counting

Where available we use Intl.Segmenter word segments (isWordLike). Results can differ by browser and language; counting is helpful, not linguistically perfect.

UTF-8 byte length

Byte size uses the browser TextEncoder (UTF-8 only). Shift_JIS and other encodings are out of scope for this tool.

Privacy

Text stays on your device. Analytics never include text, counts, samples, or hashes.

Limits

A soft limit around one million code points keeps the UI responsive. Extremely large pastes may show a safety message.

Common uses

• Check draft length for forms, SMS, or social posts.
• Estimate UTF-8 payload size before API or file limits.
• Count lines and paragraphs in multilingual documents.

FAQ

Is my text uploaded?

No. Counting runs entirely in your browser.

Why is an emoji more than one character?

We count Unicode code points. Some emoji sequences include multiple code points.

How are words counted in Japanese?

Via Intl.Segmenter when the browser supports it. Treat results as approximate for CJK text.

Does excluding spaces ignore all whitespace?

Yes — Unicode whitespace matched by JavaScript \s (with u), consistently across locales.

Can I count Shift_JIS bytes?

Not in this tool. Only UTF-8 byte length is shown.
