Help needed: Word 10 for Mac and XP PC Word files' non-printingcharacters

M

Michael Bryan

Any time I bring a Word XP (for Windows) file home from the office and take
advantage of Word's interoperability with Macs to open it on my Imac under
OS 10.3, the Mac copy of Word (Office 10) insists on displaying the
non-printing characters (tabs, paragraph marks etc) from the PC file and
when I try to turn them off with the usual "hide" command on the Mac they
will NOT go away. Anyone know how to troubleshoot this ?

Check the View tab in Preferences--they can be turned on permanently there.
