Hi Nicole, In Pages, go to the Edit menu, choose "Writing Tools" and then under Writing tools, choose "Show Statistics. Make sure the "Info" tab is selected, and VO right arrow until you get to "Words" and VO right arrow one more time to get the number of words. If you VO write arrow again you will find the number of pages in the document. Nicole, I find that I have to press the tab key once I go into "show statistics" in order to get to the different tabs. I think the Info tab is selected by default though, so you should just be able to VO right arrow till you find "Words".
