Track Changes and Comments

Comments

Sometimes you may want to add a comment to provide feedback instead of editing a document. While often used in combination with Track Changes, you don't necessarily need to have Track Changes turned on to use comments.

To add comments:

  1. Highlight some text, or place the insertion point where you want the comment to appear.

You can also respond to an existing comment. Just click the Reply button and type your response.
