Show paragraph styling on Windows Show Non-Printing Characters & all Formatting Marks This is what it looks like on Word for Windows.
To ensure that you really are seeing all of the mark-up icons in your document, it’s helpful to enable the “Nonprinting characters” as well. To do this on the Mac, go to Word Preferences > View. You can access it by going to File > Options > Display and check off “Show all formatting marks.” Show all formatting marks on Windows Note that I enabled “All” so that I can see all types of hidden, non-printing characters. Once you have that enabled, you should go to the paragraph in question. Once you know where the issue is, you should look at the hidden formatting of that paragraph and the one immediately following it. In my example, I noticed that the following paragraph had a “little black square” to the left of the paragraph. And, no matter what I tried to do, I could not delete it.
