If someone edit your document, Track Changes shows you exactly what they added, deleted, or changed. Very easy to control! Let go learn!

What is Track Changes?

Track Changes is a tool that records every edit made to the document:

• Added text appears underlined in color.
• Deleted text gets strikethrough line (strikethrough).
• Formatting changes show in the right margin margin balloon.
