"Hidden" text" in Word in Office 365

[ellenbrownlowi07]

I am using Office 365 Version of Word. There appears to be "hidden" text that I cannot see but others can and which also prints. I followed the steps above and all is well. Am I missing something? Thanks.

What are "the steps above"? Does this text appear when you "Print Preview"?

Open Word, press Alt-F9. This will reveal any hidden text, if any (and bunch of other formatting).
It could be also that the "hidden text" is part of header/footer which you don't see. Switch to "Page Layout view" to make sure that WYSIWYG.

I just found out that this does not seem to be a word problem. It only happens when opened under MacOS. I had several people open under MS and the "hidden" text does not appear. Thanks so much for your prompt response.
