FORMAT => REVEAL FORMATTING lets you see what formatting is being used
on the page. If something is not looking right, and you aren't sure what it
is, then you can check. Sometimes two fonts can be very close but look
funny when it gets printed out.
Similar to this command is the show/hide button on your formatting toolbar.
The funny mark that looks like a backwards P is a hard return, (in other
words, where you hit enter on the keyboard). If you have a space or the
writing suddenly breaks off, that is probably the problem.
Spaces are shown by a dot.just.like.this. If you have something that is on
a separate line, but doesn't move when you hit delete, check for extra spaces.
A tab mark is a small arrow. You can delete any of these characters, just like
a normal letter.
To get rid of the formatting marks, just click the button or command again.
