Unwanted bullets or indents what ever they are

[Guest]

Hi
My messages in Outlook have been invaded by little marks that are at the
beginning of every line and then it applies a dot in between every word. The
marks are a broad I with a blob on the top inside. What is this and how can i
get rid of it? I have tried to cut and paste an example but it pastes it
without these annoying punctuation marks.
Thanks

This is a Word setting not Outlook.

Use CTRL+SHIFT+8 to toggle it on/off

They're invisible characters, and are very helpful when creating documents
(well i find them useful). The sort of backward p blob is a carriage return,
the dots are just spaces.

They're invisible characters that I find very helpful. The backwards P blob
thing, denotes a carriage return, the dots you mentioned are spaces. You can
turn them on and off from the menu as well as the control keys. I think the
icon is the same backwards p blob.
