Re: detecting formatting in word 2013 especially paragraphs
Hi, Jim. I don't know if the formatting characters are visible on the printer, but they are definitely visible on the screen. As far as toggling them off, just use CONTROL plus SHIFT plus 8, to toggle them, or go back and uncheck the check box that you used to turn them on.

RE: detecting formatting in word 2013 especially paragraphs
HI: As usual, I have a "take charge/control" approach to this kind of thing. First, I go into JAWS Keyboard Manager. I find the section that allows you to read things like "Prior" and "next", regarding "word", sentence" and "paragraph. I then set keystrokes for each. For example, in my case, I have ctrl+numpad Home", set for previous paragraph, ctrl+numpad up arrow for "current paragraph" and ctrl+numbad "page up" for "next paragraph". But, that's just how "I" like it. You can set it up as you wish - or, use the JAWS values, if there are any already set forth for these settings. In your case, I would then move to the "select..,." part of this Keyboard Manager list, and set shift+ctrl+numpad "page up" for selecting the "next paragraph", assuming that I wish to select, and copy/cut and paste my "next paragraph, as my keystrokes to accomplish this. Then, I can move it anywhere, and make whatever editing changes I want to make to that paragraph - as it seems you wish to do. Frankly, I do not know the other suggestions that have been put forward to this question. However, as I mentioned, I like to "be in charge", and I prefer this kind of approach. And, once these Keyboard Manager setting changes have been made, I can do what I want, editing-wise, without worrying about what I may need to do with the word/sentence/paragraph after moving it. Good luck. You will find what works best for you, and that may not be the same as what works for me!

RE: detecting formatting in word 2013 especially paragraphs
Hi Jodie, If you just want to move by paragraph, Ctrl-Down or Ctrl-Up will do it; you can add Shift to select by that amount. If you want, you can also put paragraph marks on the screen so that, even if you're arrowing through a document, you'll know where paragraphs end. The "paragraph mark" is the character that you get when you press the Enter key, but usually it's not visible because most people aren't bothered about it. The Ctrl-Shift-8 keystroke that's been mentioned adds a number of "non-printing" marks to the screen, including paragraph marks, spaces and Tabs. Recent versions of JAWS don't read these, and I think this is because people often pressed the command by mistake, and then couldn't get rid of the extra information JAWS was reading out. But you can still add just paragraph marks to the screen from the Options dialogue. Press Alt, F, T to open the dialogue. DownArrow to Display, then Tab to Paragraph marks. Press Space to toggle the setting to checked. Then press Enter to close the dialogue. When you do it this way, JAWS will read the paragraph marks that are now on screen.
