5.00

MS-DOS

To collapse blank lines while editing a document in Word 5.00, do the following:


 * 1) From the Options menu (ESC+O), set “show hidden text:” to No and “show non-printing symbols:” to Partial.
 * 2) Highlight the blank lines (paragraph marks) that you want to collapse and format these for hidden text by setting the “hidden:” field to Yes in Format Character. The blank lines do not appear until Options “show hidden text:” is set to Yes.
 * 3) To control the printed document, set the Print Options (ESC+P+O) “hidden text:” to Yes or No. Printing hidden text operates independently of the editing screen.
