In addition to the basic content, there are characters in a Word document that do not normally appear on the screen. Some special characters are used by Word for its own purposes. For example, characters that signal the end of a line or paragraph.
Word treats them as non-printable characters. Why display them in the document? Because when you see these characters, it’s easier to understand the spacing and layout of the document.
For example, you can easily determine where you put two spaces between words or made an extra end of a paragraph. But to see the document as it will be printed, you need to hide these characters. We will teach you how to easily hide and display non-printable characters.
