"Final" vs "Final with markup" document.

[Joyce]

Every time I try to attach this particular word doc to an e-mail, the "Final
with markup" document is sent, not the "final" doc. I never knew there was a
"Final with markup" before now. Even when I save my Final doc, it reverts
back to Final with Markup when sent as an attacment to an e-mail. Help?

 

[Jay Freedman]

In order to have "Final with Markup" go away, you MUST either accept
or reject EVERY tracked change in the document. Read
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trackchanges/HowTrackChangesWorks.html.

If you only hide the changes when you send the document, the recipient
can (and probably will) see all the changes, because that's the
default setting. For the reason behind this, see
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trackchanges/PublicExamplesOfTrackChanges.html.

Probably if you send it thru word, it would happen that way. Send it using
your email program as an attachment.

If the document contains markup when it is sent, no matter how it is sent,
it will contain markup when it is received. Only by accepting all the
changes and deleting all the comments can you achieve a document free of
markup.
