ℹ️ About

The Pilcrow Sign (¶), also known as the paragraph mark, is a typographical character used to denote a new paragraph. In modern software like Microsoft Word or Adobe InDesign, it serves as a non-printing character to reveal hidden formatting. Historically, it originated from the letter “C” for capitulum (chapter).
