Half Spacing Between Characters

[Guest]

Hi,

In Persian (Farsi), in addition to spacing between characters, there is also
"Half Spacing" between characters by pressing "Ctrl+Shift+2" keys when
required.

For example:

In "Microsoft Word 2003 Professional Edition" however, half spaces change to
vertical lines except in "Reading View". Here is an example:

This problem occurs only for me. In other computers with Word 2003 installed
that I tested, there aren't vertical lines, and half spacing works correctly.
When files typeset correctly are sent to me the same problem occurs on my
computer.

How can I get rid of these vertical lines ?

Thank you,

Persian.

I think you will find, if you zoom in on them, that the vertical lines are
actually narrow boxes, and they are just Word's representation of the
non-printing spaces. Select Tools > Options > View (tab) and look under the
Formatting Marks heading - you will have either or both of "Spaces" and
"All" checked. Uncheck them both.

First of all tnx for your helping Tony.

They were unchecked.
Also I zoomed in on them, I think they aren't narrow boxes:

The only other thing I can think of is some sort of issue with the Font. I
can't configure my system to reproduce the problem and don't know of any
other Word setting that might cause it. Do the lines print?
