Does that include the dots between words instead of spaces? My colleague uses that and their documents are nigh unreadable to me at a glance

Yes, but you get used to it very quickly.

You don't enable it for everyone who reads the documents, just yourself.

I'm aware, I just frequently have to do over-the-shoulder proofreading and the dots always frustrate me

It does, but that's invaluable too, and you get used to it pretty quickly. It let's you see if there's a space (dot), tab (arrow), line wrap (bent arrow), or whatever. Very useful if you deal with documents a lot.
