Do Spaces and Line Breaks Count?
Key points
- Counting with and without
- Follow the recipient
- If unsure, check the stricter one
Two ways to count
- With spaces and line breaks: every typed character is counted.
- Without: only visible characters are counted.
Character Counter (for Applications and Reports) shows both at once.
If the recipient doesn't say, keep both numbers within the limit to be safe.
