Default How do I undo the paragraph marks after each line?

I was updating my resume and references. I copied and paste my references to
the bottome of my resume. Everything was going okay, then I don't know what
I might have pressed, but every line has a paragraph symbol and the right
arrow. I need to undo this mistake and don't know how.

It's not a mistake and they don't print.

Hello Chita,

it is not a bug it is a feature, you just have accidently turned on non
printing characters.
They are usually empty spaces but can mess the structure of the document.

For how to display/hide them see this link:

I hope it helps

If not, contact me via my website
