How to remove Paper To-Dos?

My Paper document has turned into what I guess is a To-Do list. Little boxes start every line. How do I turn this off?

    Hi johnweidner, let's jump right into this! 

     

    What you can do in order to remove a to-do list, is to either click on the vertical line on the to-do list, as if you were to write something on it and delete the whole line and the list with it, using the backspace key.

     

    Or click on it, and then toggle to-do off, from the little tick button on the bottom of the screen.

     

    Can you give it a go, and let me know more? Thanks a bunch!

      I’m not sure it’s a to-do list I’m dealing with. I didn’t find any toggle button. I did find a Keyboard Shortcut for “Task List,” which gets rid of some of the boxes, but is very slow and inconsistent. I enclose a picture. Thanks for help!

        Hi johnweidner, you can either manually mark them all, and then delete them. 

         

        Or you can also manually mark them, and then use the shortcut to remove them. If you have any issues with that, let me know.
