When you choose to view tracked changes in a document "by author", sometimes
word chooses the same color for both authors. (Yes this is happening to me
right now.) Sometimes WORD chooses different colors, but one doesn't print
well - like yellow for example. A person should be able to select priorty
colors, first user: green, second user: blue, third user: red . . . then
maybe auto-select for anything over three.

I have posted this before and received instructions on how to chage color of
edits in the options menu. Not helpful! Don't want all insertions to be one
color and all deletions to be another. I need to use the "by author"
function.

Thanks.

I agree this would be helpful. It might be difficult to implement, since it
would vary by user, but it really ought to be done.
