Word count of Thai source document

User did a wordcount on Thai Word document. However, the wordcount is not correct.

Understand that for Thai, there are no spaces between words. In Thai all the words are joined in a long sentence. Thai spaces mark the end of a sentence or clause.

Is there any setting that can be done in Wordbee Translator for Thai wordcount & translation process? How about other file type (e.g. HTML & others)?

  Hi Jestine,
  
  thanks for submitting your ticket.
  Could you please let me know if a user ticked the option in wordcount profile he is using for this project, marked in yellow on this screenshot?
  

  All the best

  Won't that just give a character count?

  Hi,

  Count in characters is a big difference.

  Let say I use, Microsoft word compatible word count profile, the counting is as per below.

  

  If we consult Thai translator , they actually told us 4613 words.

  Can wordbee perform thai word counting? Hopefully there is ways to sort this out as Thai is one of our important market.

  Thanks.
