Hello, I'm reaching out because I have a big problem. I have a project due tomorrow at 5 PM for my classes, and there's some kind of numbering/bullets that I don't know how they got into my document! I don't know where it comes from… I have styles, a cover page, WordArt… I’m attaching a screenshot of the problem.
https://prnt.sc/axmlbi
I’ve circled the little squares I was talking about; that's my big problem!
If someone among you could help me, I would really appreciate it!
Thank you so much, I hope to find my future savior here.

Good evening
All your paragraphs have the property "Keep with next" or "Keep lines together".
What you see are non-printable characters.
To remove them:
you can select everything (Ctrl+A), then open the dialog box (by clicking on the dialog launcher located at the bottom right of the Paragraph group, Home tab).
In the dialog box, click on the Line and Page Breaks tab, and then uncheck "Keep with next" and "Keep lines together".
It is worth noting, however, that these two functions are useful:
- Keep with next: to ensure that two paragraphs are not separated by a page break, check Keep with next for the first paragraph of the two. This is useful for titles, for example, because a title should not be left alone at the bottom of a page.
- Keep lines together: if you do not want a paragraph to be split by a page break, select the paragraph and check Keep lines together.
