Character or word limit within an article

I would like to limit the amount of characters in an excerpt or an article. Is this possible?

At the moment I count the words/lines manually as I copy them into my excerpt, but this is tedious. Is there an easier way to set the character or word limit?

Also, if there is a way of doing this, can it be added to the following?

txp:article_custom section=“name” limit=“1”

Thank you if anyone can help. I have searched through the forum and TextBook but not found an answer as yet.

Re: Character or word limit within an article

There is nothing built into TXP to do this; it would need to be a plugin.

There is also zem_article_info.
