Hello NVDA Chat,
My post regards asking clarification concerning NVDA or Narrator being able to do the following with email attachments: This is an excerpt from an email reply by a proofreading/editing service. For Microsoft Word documents, we return two versions of your completed document to you. The first, marked “showing markup,” is a complete record of every change we made to your document using the track changes feature. The second, marked “all changes accepted,” is a clean version for your convenience with those changes implemented and only comments remaining. These comments are made using the Microsoft Word commenting feature and displayed on the right side of the document. Me. At one time, I understood 'track changes' to appear as what someone called text in a bubble. Is this still a relevant claim? Thanks for your help. I use MS Word Student Ed., 2019. Best, -- David C. Russell, Author david.sonofhashem@... |

I have a supplemental question on this track changes issue.

It seems if I turn on track changes that all is well until somebody saves the file in html, at which time all the original and changed words end up in the page. Am I missing something here? I solved it by cutting and pasting the file into another word window and saving that as html instead. Brian -- bglists@...

Hi NVDA Chat and Brian,
You indirectly answered my question by saying all is well when you turn on track changes. A sighted friend told me she struggles with track changes in that all is well for a few minutes and then the changes become disordered or out of place. According to her, it is quite the ordeal to fix. If the MS Word comments sum what was offered in Track changes, then at least I will have a record of the editing done that will be convenient to read. Typically, I choose to view attachments as HTML. When done, the MS Word comments appear alongside the text being changed. Example: I am taking (talking) to you. The paren is the comment itself. Off record, Yours is the first response I saw to this topic. Best to All, -- David C. Russell, Author david.sonofhashem@... |

It was an unexpected result for me, as I seldom edit documents with others. The only reason I wanted html was so I could have folk read the file with Edges voices.
