Navigation:  Reviewing documents > Tracking changes in a document > Step 2: Making the desired changes

Then make the desired changes to the document as usual. You can change, delete and add text, change the formatting, etc.

The document can still be edited exactly as if the "Track changes" function did not exist at all. There is only one important difference: All the changes you make now are indicated as follows by default:

▪When you add text, it is colored and underlined in the document itself.

▪When you delete text, this is shown to the right of the document in the comments pane.

▪When you change the formatting of text, this is also shown to the right of the document in the comments pane.

In addition, a vertical line appears in the left margin beside each line that contains a change, indicating that a change was made at that point.

Note: You can customize the default behavior described above (how the different changes actions are indicated) according to your needs. For more information, see Settings for the Track changes function.
