Change the Track Changes colour


You can set tracked changes and comments to appear in different colours for different authors. Word automatically picks which color represents each author—and that colour might change when you reopen the document or someone else opens the document. 


  1. Click Review > Tracking



           



        2. Click Advanced Options

            

           

     



         3. Click the arrows next to the Colour boxes and the Comments box, and choose By author.


            


* These colour settings are for your computer only. Other people will see the tracked changes in whatever colours they set up. By author colours will look different on different computers.


           

Notes: You can modify the colour associated with Insertions, Deletions etc. 

            

For example, to see all Insertions as Pink, click the associated Color: field drop down box arrow, scroll down the list and select Pink and click OK. Now all insertions are coloured Pink.
