Readability Statistics

Post by Phil8659 »

For those who like to keep track of their readability stats which Word can give you, here is a simple macro which you can use to put the states in your page, it will put it at your cursor position.

Sub RStats()
Selection.TypeParagraph
Selection.MoveUp Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1
Selection.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("Normal")
Dim StatText As String
Dim rs As Variant
StatText = ActiveDocument.Name & " Statistics:" & vbCr
For Each rs In ActiveDocument.ReadabilityStatistics
StatText = StatText & rs.Name & " - " & rs.Value & vbCr
Next rs
Selection.Text = StatText

End Sub


One can use it when writing which is aimed at different reader's levels.

Do you think writing in bigger text here on the forum helps your readability statistics?

Don't worry, no matter how large the text is, you show you cannot wrap your brain around it. Maybe you should panhandle someone into teaching you what the phrase "on Topic" means.

You used too many words in your sentence, should have just stopped after think.

And by the way, you can go fuck yourself if you think you somehow magically inherited the right to tell anyone what size text to use, Stop demanding the text size to match your dick.
