I have a word count for a text field. You have to jump out for the count to show. Can it be dynamic, where the count changes as you type?

Yes, it's possible. You would need to utilize one of the events that get triggered each time a character is entered into the field to achieve it, like the Keystroke event. I've actually developed such a script and you can find it here: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- "Live" Characters and Words Counter
