How to Print a Word Count on Microsoft Works Word

Microsoft Works is a word-processing program created by Microsoft. A word count refers to the number of words in a particular document. Often, it is enough just to know how many words are in a particular document. However, in some instances, you may have to print the word count. For example, you may have to prove the word count to an employer or an admissions committee. Fortunately, this can be done using the Print Screen option.
