They can be different on a Section by Section basis. So when I go to Document, Section you could see things like the background and the page numbering and properties of Headers and Footers. This acts very much like a Page Break except that sections in Pages can have different properties.
So let's say at the beginning of this paragraph here I'm going to start a new section. Now in addition to a Page Break there's also a Section Break. You could see it really looks the same if I turn Off invisibles. Use the right arrow on the keyboard to go forward one and you can see I'm between the paragraph break and the page break and delete. It won't really get in the way or you can easily use the invisible characters. Notice it leaves behind the paragraph break there. If I want to have a page break here I could just insert Page Break.
You could see now there's no character between the period and the M and I can insert a return. If I want to delete it I can easily select it, like that, and delete it. It's actually a character between this period here and the first letter of the next paragraph. It gives you a long line and then a little page symbol there at the end. Well, it's probably because you inserted a page break. Why does the next page always start here. Sometimes people ask me why is there a lot of blank space and how can I get rid of it at the end of this page. Now at the end of you can see a lot of blank space. If I hit Return you could see it places the paragraph symbol, or Paragraph Break, invisible character there.Īnother kind of break that you often see is a Page Break. So, for instance, if I were to insert a new paragraph right here I could easily delete this space, I don't have to leave it behind. That's actually a paragraph mark, the same mark that has been used for a longtime for editors working with documents. The most used break is a Paragraph Break of sometimes called a Line Break. Now the rest of the invisible characters are breaks. A non-breaking space means that this is considered one word and it won't wrap from line to line. You can see a dot with a little hat on top of it. So instead of a space here I can delete that space, see how easy it is using using invisibles and it knows exactly what I'm doing, and I can use Option Space and that will insert a different looking space here. But you don't want it to wrap from one line to the next. Like they're really one word but usually there's a space between them. So, for instance, say these two words belong together. The other character is what's called a Non-breaking space. But you can see the Tab characters as a right facing arrow and easily select them, delete them, and work with them thanks to Show Invisibles. If you use Tab here it tabs things over and of course you can set custom tabs. But if you've been typing for a long time then you probably are just using Tab out of habit from using a typewriter. So a lot of people may not use Tab at all. It's simply generated whenever you use the Tab key on the keyboard. Another one is the Tab which you can see here. So for the standard characters the first one of course is the Space. Three of these are standard characters that appear in text. There are actually nine invisible characters and a few other things that show up when you use View, Show Invisibles. So this can help you find the situation where you put too many spaces between words and easily get rid of them and make sure you just have one. Right away you can see how this is useful because if I accidentally insert an extra space between two words you can see that there are two dots. But you can see them because they create a space between the characters around them. Space between words are characters just like any letter or number and usually they're completely invisible. The most obvious one that you can see is, of course, the Space. Here we could see the invisible characters as blue symbols. We do that and it will reveal all the invisible characters. You can see the shortcut is Shift, Command i. That is to go to View and then Show Invisibles. So looking at this document in Pages you can see there are tons of invisible characters. So when you create documents in Pages you're mostly typing characters, letters, numbers, symbols that you can see. Join us and get exclusive content and course discounts.
