WINDOWS

Summary:

If you add revision marks to a Microsoft Word for Windows document, the revision bars do not appear in print preview mode. In addition, the revision bars do not print if the text is inside a table cell.

When text is not inside a table, there should be a revision mark indicating that revisions have been made to the document.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.1a. This problem was corrected in Word for Windows version 2.0.

Steps to Reproduce Problem

 * 1) Create a document.
 * 2) Save and retrieve the document.
 * 3) From the Utilities menu, choose Revision Marks, and select Mark Revisions, Revision Bars Left, and Mark New Text With Underline.
 * 4) From the Insert menu, choose Table.
 * 5) Add text within the table.
 * 6) From the File menu, choose Print and/or Print Preview. The marked new text displays as underlined, but no bar appears in the left margin.
 * 7) Select a portion of text. From the Insert menu, choose Table to Text.

Revision marks are again visible in print preview mode and print as displayed.
