How can I print non-printing characters in Word?

[Rene]

nThe ones that only show when you turn on Show/Hide (paragraph marks, tab
characters, etc.)

Not except with a screen shot (or a lot of work inserting graphic
characters).

Have you tried going to Tools > Options > Print tab, in the middle under
Include with document check Hidden Text.

Try the following Find and Replace:

From the menu bar select Edit > Replace or press Ctrl+H
Click the More button at the bottom
Click in the Find What box
Click the Special button at the bottom
Select Paragraph Mark, at the -very top- of the list
Click in the Replace with box
Click the Special button at the bottom
Select Paragraph Mark, in the -middle- of the list
Then Select Paragraph Mark, at the very top of the list
Click Replace All

This will insert a visible Pilcrow before end of paragraph.

Click the More button at the bottom
Click in the Find What box
Hit the space to enter a space
Click in the Replace with box
Hold down the Alt button on your keyboard and using the number pad (not the
numbers above the letters) type 0183.
Alt-0183 is the decimal code for middle dot
The do a replace all

This will replace the space with the middle dot, there is one disadvantage
to this part. Your paragraphs become one long word meaning that words will
actually break at odd places but at least all you have to do is look on the
far right and left and replace first (right) or last (left side) with a space
to actually get the words to wrap.

I never said this would be pretty.
