Table 32 below identifies many of these alphabetic characters and how you create them.

Table 32

Typing Special characters using the U.S. Extended keyboard

The computer uses many other (“invisible”) characters to affect the display of your text on screen
and on paper. Each space, tab and Return is counted as an individual character, a “value” added to
your file. Additional characters that affect the format of your document include

Page Break
Choose the menu command Insert > Page Break to force succeeding text to begin at the top of
a new page.

Soft Return
Press the

1

and

<

keys on your keyboard to force succeeding text to begin a new line

without beginning a new paragraph. (This is possible only when using Nisus Writer Pro in OS
10.4 (Tiger) and newer versions of the System.)

Tab
Press the

@

key on your keyboard to force succeeding text to begin at the next tab stop.

Space
Press the Space Bar on your keyboard to enter a space between numbers and letters, etc.

Non-Breaking Space
Press

4

and the Space Bar on your keyboard to enter a space between numbers and letters,

etc. that prevents the “words” on either side from breaking at a line wrap.

You can see how Nisus Writer Pro displays these “invisible” or “formatting” characters in Table 28 on
page 373. To turn on their display, choose the menu command View > Show Invisibles.
