What are hidden characters?
InDesign uses special text characters that are invisible to your eye and in the printed version of your document.
These characters are called control characters. They are used, for example, to wrap lines, break paragraphs, space words in a specific way, etc.
Why do I have to activate hidden characters?
If you want to have complete control over your text while creating or editing your document, you want to see any invisible text characters because, as we mentioned, they control how your text is formatted.
For example, as we have already seen in another post, using a specific control character (soft-return or hard-return) to wrap your text may influence the way your text behaves when you apply a paragraph style.
What are the advantages of control characters correctly?
