Here are the articles that I have on recreating WP "reveal codes" in MS Word:Ĭhecking Formatting - Word's Reveal Codes But that presumes you have an idea of where the problem lies. There are some features in Word you can use to show paragraph and specific character formatting. Word is built to be "user friendly" by hiding all of the formatting codes. It sounds like what you are looking for is a "html" view where you can see all of the formatting codes, like WordPerfect used to do. All of the rest of the format information is not visible other than as the format displayed. Word has very few non printing characters that are visible. This check box does not affect the individual settings in the “Always show these formatting marks on the screen” section.The lists, like the screen cap Nathan provided, are all there is. The “Show all formatting marks” check box toggles the display of the non-printing characters in the document. In the “Always show these formatting marks on the screen” section, select the check boxes for the non-printing characters you want to show in your document at all times. On the “Word Options” dialog box, click “Display” in the list of items on the left. On the backstage screen, click “Options” in the list of items on the left. To display specific non-printing characters, click the “File” tab.

NOTE: We used Word 2013 to illustrate this feature. We’ll show you to easily show and hide these characters. But there may be times when you want to hide these characters to view your document as it will be printed. For example, you can tell when you have inserted two spaces between words or added an extra carriage return. Why would you want to display non-printing characters in a document? It’s easier to understand the spacing and layout in your document when these special characters are displayed. Word refers to these special characters as non-printing characters. In addition, Word uses several special characters for its own purposes, such as characters to indicate the end of a line or a paragraph. Besides the normal content of your documents in Word, there are also characters that don’t normally display on the screen.
