Getting dots in the spacing between words
In Word documents I have started to get dots in the spacing between words. This happens with new and existing documents. This looks something like this: The+quick+brown+fox+jumped+over+the+lazy+dog except instead of the plus signs that I used in this example there are simply dots. I have "view" set to Print Layout. The documents print OK, i.e. the dots do not show up on the printed page but I still find this kind of annoying. I have run "repair" with the installation disk but that did not help. Any idea how to get back to normal spacing without the dots? |

See Showing non-printing formatting marks in Microsoft Word. These do not print and are useful.

I found out how to clear those dotS. rjkirk77
In word document on the File tab, under Help, click Options / Display . Under the ALWAYS SHOW THESE FORMATTING MARKS ON THE SCREEN group, clear the check box for each formatting mark that you don't always want to be displayed on the screen. In this case it was the "spaces" box that needed to be cleared. |
