I find a variety of information online about standard pages. The only consistent one is 30 lines of 60 characters each.
What settings regarding margins, headers and footers, paragraphs, fonts, etc. do you use to achieve this?
Have you set up any extra goodies to make things easier for you?
My goal is to set it up like this in Word.

Loading...Hey! I'm currently writing a short story. I have a few events that I want to include in the story, and they all belong together and are related to the same thing. But I can't just string these events together. I want to have some space in between where something else unimportant happens. Like a…
Good morning everyone, I am currently writing a bachelor's thesis and am having difficulty numbering my thesis in relation to the format. As soon as I try to number the headings (appropriately formatted with three styles for three different heading types) using a list type, Word deletes the heading styles and thus ruins my table…
Hi, I can't decide which book I should choose. Do you have a book like this yourself? What would you choose? Here are links to the books: Diary: https://amzn.eu/d/8vhEXGq Success Journal: https://amzn.eu/d/7KI6rnJ
I've finally finished my thesis and was in the process of creating an automatic table of contents. Now I have the declaration of independence on page 8 (see image), even though it's on page 25. I've also been working with page breaks and read here that this has an impact, but I don't know how…
Good evening!^^ I'm currently writing a FF or am still in the planning phase. I need quite a few names for the hierarchies, so I would appreciate some ideas!☺️ Feel free to use more unusual and creative ones, even more than two syllables are good! Thank you in advance for your answers❤️ May StarClan light…
My standard pages look like this:
Thank you.
Because this came up with the other person now: Do you write for yourself in the standard page format or do you only use it as soon as you are finished and have to send something to the publisher/literature agency or the like?
I’ll write in standard pages. So I can better estimate the total volume of the manuscript.
Yes, always new per page and counting interval 30. I only make sure there are a maximum of 30 lines on each side. If I send the text later, I’ll take the numbering out again.
I still think of the question, do you use line numbering and, if so, always new per page or continuous line numbering?
A standard page corresponds to approximately one book page. This can vary depending on the formatting of the printed book by font, font size, line spacing, etc.
The standard page is also only a basis for assessment in the editorate for fee bills in publishing. But since I do not want to reformat everything after writing, I use the standard page in the writing process from the very beginning.
I think that’s reasonable.
I converted my old manuscript into standard pages with an online tool. It was first (NO NORM) 289 DIN A4 pages, but then 482 standard pages, which is quite relevant.
Unfortunately, depending on the format, the book pages are not to be equal to the standard pages, right?
Standard pages are only relevant for publishers and for price calculations, for example in the case of editors. Writing is usually not done on standard pages. But if you want to have it exactly:
DIN A4, 2.5 cm margin on all sides, Courier New, 12.5 px, 1.1 times line spacing, no header or footer.

So do you have a setting for the paragraph before and after in Enter entries?
What kind of format are you writing for? How are the pages formatted and why?
Set line spacing to 1.1 times, so in Courier New 12px font, you then filled the page exactly with 30 lines.
That depends on what I write. Texts in 12px Times New Roman, texts for publication in a print shop in 10px Linotype and normal fonts in 10px Arial.
