Displaying non-printing characters

You can display non-printing characters such as tabs, spaces, and returns by toggling the Show/Hide option on the Home ribbon [1].

Creating headers and footers

Headers and footers are areas in the top and bottom margins of each page in a document. They can be used to display information like the page number, file name, or date of the revision [1].

Status bar

Don't forget the status bar at the bottom of the window. It gives a running tally of word count, your location in the document, and what section you are in.  It's often overlooked and is very helpful [2].
