<h1>Show/hide nonprinting characters</h1>
<p>Nonprinting characters help you edit a document. They indicate the presence of various types of formatting, but they do not print with the document, even when they are displayed on the screen.</p>
<p>To show or hide nonprinting characters, click the <b>Nonprinting characters</b> <span class = "icon icon-nonprintingcharacters"></span> icon at the <b>Home</b> tab of the top toolbar. Alternatively, you can use the <em>Ctrl+Shift+Num8</em> key combination.</p>
<p>Nonprinting characters include:</p>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Spaces</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-space"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you press the <b>Spacebar</b> on the keyboard. It creates a space between characters.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Tabs</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-tab"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you press the <b>Tab</b> key. It's used to advance the cursor to the next tab stop.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Paragraph marks (i.e. hard returns)</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-hard"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you press the <b>Enter</b> key. It ends a paragraph and adds a bit of space after it. It contains information about the paragraph formatting.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Line breaks (i.e. soft returns)</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-soft"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you use the <b>Shift+Enter</b> key combination. It breaks the current line and puts lines of text close together. Soft return is primarily used in titles and headings.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Nonbreaking spaces</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-nonbreakspace"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you use the <b>Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar</b> key combination. It creates a space between characters which can't be used to start a new line.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Page breaks</td>
<td><div class = "big big-pagebreak"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you use the <div class = "icon icon-pagebreak1"></div> <b>Breaks</b> icon at the <b>Insert</b> or <b>Layout</b> tab of the top toolbar and then select the <b>Insert Page Break</b> option, or select the <b>Page break before</b> option in the right-click menu or advanced settings window.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Section breaks</td>
<td><div class = "big big-sectionbreak"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you use the <div class = "icon icon-pagebreak1"></div> <b>Breaks</b> icon at the <b>Insert</b> or <b>Layout</b> tab of the top toolbar and then select one of the <b>Insert Section Break</b> submenu options (the section break indicator differs depending on which option is selected: Next Page, Continuous Page, Even Page or Odd Page).</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Column breaks</td>
<td><div class = "big big-columnbreak"></div></td>
<td>Inserted when you use the <div class = "icon icon-pagebreak1"></div> <b>Breaks</b> icon at the <b>Insert</b> or <b>Layout</b> tab of the top toolbar and then select the <b>Insert Column Break</b> option.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>End-of-cell and end-of row markers in tables</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-cellrow"></div></td>
<td>These markers contain formatting codes for the individual cell and row, respectively.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Small black square in the margin to the left of a paragraph</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-square"></div></td>
<td>It indicates that at least one of the paragraph options was applied, e.g. <b>Keep lines together</b>, <b>Page break before</b>.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Anchor symbols</td>
<td><div class = "icon icon-anchor"></div></td>
<td>They indicate the position of floating objects (those with a wrapping style other than <b>Inline</b>), e.g. images, autoshapes, charts. You should select an object to make its anchor visible.</td>
