ORIGINAL POST: I've looked through this
info. I've managed with some of it, but this part is beyond me right now.
I think I can handle making the column,
but I need the FUNCTION string to make it work.
My goal is do a math problem using 1 existing custom column.
I have these 2 columns: #pages and #words
These are populated by the Count Pages plug-in.
However, #pages uses characters to determine the number of pages. I want to be be able to relate to the digital book better based on traditional formatting of printed non-educational and non-art books sized between 5.5in to 6"x9" in English.
I've researched many "facts" and opinions on the average number of words per pages in these traditional printed formats. I've settle on using 300 words per page as my number to determine a page count I can relate to. I'm already familiar with personal reading speed and can relate that to word count, but this would be a really nice feature if someone can help make it happen.
It could also be really helpful to self-publishers.
Essentially, I need a column that does this math: #words/300 and returns the numeric value rounded up if possible.
Can anyone construct this string for my custom column?
