There are two ways to do this. Then you can either go to the View menu and select "Hide Formatting" or click on the paragraph icon in the tool bar. This will remove the paragraph symbols on the page. The symbols will no longer be shown.

While in Microsoft Word, you click on the paragraph symbol which will say show/hide once you put your cursor on it and the symbols will disappear.

Paragraph symbols can be enabled or disabled for the whole document. To hide Paragraph symbols in a document, click on the Home tab, and under Paragraph section, click show/hide.

The "Show/Hide" button is located on the Paragraph toolbar. It looks like a backwards "P". Click on it once and the paragraph marks will be hidden.

There are two ways to turn off the paragraph symbols. Look in your toolbar for a paragraph symbol. Click on it to turn off the paragraph symbols in your document. If you don't see a paragraph symbol, press these three keys at the same time: CTRL-ENTER-8
