Hi all,


I seem to get different word counts for a document right after I save. 
This is more noticeable in large files, but it happens in smaller ones 
as well. for example, my current document has 63,199 words. When I use 
ctrl+s to save then use the status bar command to find out what my word 
count is, Word might report 62,537 words or 62,065. It sometimes reports 
one number, then the other a few seconds later. After 20 or 30 seconds, 
it seems to settle on a number.


I thought this was a Word problem, but the times I've used NVDA, I seem 
to get the same word count all the time. This doesn't make sense to me 
since Jaws is only reading what presumably is on the screen.


Anyone have any theories about what's happening?


I'm using Word 2016 with current Jaws and current NVDA, but this problem 
isn't at all new. I've noticed it since at least Word 2013.



Ciao
