Page Count for a text file

[Stoomis]

I am looping through a directory and processing each file that is present, and writing a companion file about each. In the companinon file I need to include the page count of the text file that is being processed. Is there are file property that will give the page count? Thanks

For a text file, there is no way for the file to know what it's page count is. It would be dependent on the settings of the program that you used to open the file. What does that program use for a default font? What size is the default font? What size are the default borders? None of his is stored in the text file so there is no way to get it from the text file itself. You could open each file with word, then you should be able to get a page count but it would be pretty slow.
