Printing Paragraph, Tab and Space Marks

[e125]

I would like to know how to print out the paragraph, tab and space marks in
my word document. The documents I work with need to be perfect. Thus
double-spaces, unwanted tabs and other mistakes have to be removed. Seeing
such marks printed on a page would help achieve this goal. Any suggestions on
how to accomplish this?

There is, perhaps unfortunately, no practical way to do this.

Best way I've found is to take a decent screen shot & print that.

As mentioned this cannot be printed directly from Word but screen captures
will do it, should be great with a 400+ page docuemnt ;-)
I tend to run through a series of Find/Replace to deal with what you are
describing.
ie <space>^p for finding spaces at end of paragraphs, <space><space> to find
those elusive double/triple spacing (in Tools, Options, Spelling & Grammar,
Grammar settings, you can enforce the number of spaces between sentences,
these will show up in the document as a grammar error (green wiggly line) and
also a spell check will find them).
also ^t to find Tab marks that can be squashed to very small by the
tabulation settings and even screen-captured may not find them.

Hope this helps
