Find pixel percentage

[wseyller]

I designing a 8 x 10 image. It is 1-bit mode. black and white only. For special reasons I need to determine a percentage of white(blank) pixels to black pixels. I heard there was a way with either photoshop or Illustrator. Anyone know how this is done?

no one knows?

This guy had to do something similar and includes some C code to count the pixels and display the ratio. Hope it helps.
