Select Display from the listing at the left.
In the section titled "Always show these formatting marks on the screen", check or uncheck the appropriate boxes to view the marks of your choice. To show or hide them all, select Show all formatting marks.

In Word for Mac OS X, click the paragraph icon in the Standard toolbar. If you don't see the icon, from the View menu, choose Toolbars, and then check Standard.
