Paragraph Mark/Space Displays Different with MS LineDraw

 * }

Q75679

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for Windows, version 2.0

-

SUMMARY
When you choose the option to Display Spaces, Paragraph Marks, and/or All Non-Printing Symbols in the Tools, Options dialog box of Word for Windows version 2.0, the space and paragraph symbols will appear different than they normally do within regions of a document formatted with the MS LineDraw font.

Spaces will appear as ASCII character 183 and paragraph marks will appear as ASCII character 182. This display occurrence will have no adverse effect on the printed document and is a limitation, by design, for the display only.

Workaround
To work around this display inconsistency, from the Tools menu, choose Option, View, and deselect the option to display these nonprinting symbols.

MORE INFORMATION
The MS LineDraw font is used solely for displaying line draw characters in documents converted to Word for Windows from Microsoft Word for DOS or from WordPerfect versions 5.x.
