microsoft word track changes not showing strikethrough

For instance, if the text in the source document has some words struck through and some others highlighted as inserts, you may want the text to appear the same way in the target document. You may have need, from time to time, to copy text from one document to another and retain the change marks in the text being copied. The picture that has always been there previously, the one associated with my computer and Microsoft account, does not reappear in place of the icon.One of the Word features commonly used by editors is the Track Changes feature.

On or off but that just either shows the little generic icon or removes it. So….whether or not it’s related to that, any thoughts on restoring the photo? And yes, under “Track Change Options” “Pictures by Comments” is checked. Say if that’s when the photo disappeared but it was probably at least close to that. I later changed it back to my name and initials.

May or may not be related to a time when one of the docs for whom I was doing editing asked me to substitute his name for the comments so it would appear that all the comments were from him.

Because I’m a medical editor who is constantly working on files withĬomments from many different people the photo is actually useful because at a glance I can whiz through a 40-page document, just slowing down when I see the photo in order to see if people have responded to my comments. Now the account picture has disappeared and all you see is the icon of a generic person, along with my name. I have Word 2013 and from the time I first started using it when I click on the Review tab and insert a new comment it wouldĪppear showing my name and my Microsoft “account picture” plus the typed comment. You seem to have solved a lot of other problems in this category so I am hoping you can solve mine, as well.
