I accidentally hit a series of keys on my computer and my Word document
started to show symbol markup. Every pressing of the Enter key yielded a Paragraph symbol; each indentation displayed an arrow; and each space displayed a small dot. This link will direct you to a screenshot. http://i39.tinypic.com/2gtuf85.jpg What did I press and how do I get rid of this? |

Problem solved--toggle "Show/Hide Paragraph Marks", the Paragraph symbol, in
the Paragraph box on the Home ribbon. "Kveran" wrote: I accidentally hit a series of keys on my computer and my Word document started to show symbol markup.

more about these non-printing characters and why seeing them can (sometimes) be helpful, see the article on the MVP site: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/NonPrintChars.htm -- Cheers!
