Wow! I must live on a different planet. As if I ever had time to
artificially increase the number of pages!

I know what topics I have to cover, and I have an estimate of how many
'pages' I need to create for that coverage. The best estimate is always
at least 2% under, and I have trouble producing my estimated number in
time.

In the past twenty years I have only ever met one writer who
artificially pushed up the page count, and that was a very dishonest
contractor who was covering his trail before he skipped the project a
month early because his "grandmother had died".

Simon.
