Default How do I get rid of marks like dots when I press the space bar?

Word has suddenly started showing symbols like dots for spaces and that
paragraph sign for "enter". How do I turn that feature off? They don't
show, of course on the actual printed page.

Click the ¶ button or press Ctrl+* or go to Tools Options View and
uncheck the boxes under Formatting Marks.

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...PrintChars.htm for
explanations.
