How do I remove a symbol that looks like a reverse P with a double descender
and solid black.

It sounds like the "show/hide" button is active. If it is depressed (or
"on") that press it to deactivate. If it is hidden, move the tool bar around
until it shows.

formatting displayed. It is toggled by the similar symbol button on the
toolbar, or CTRL+*
