Find missing a word

Guest

Hi there

Someone has told me that in a particular file when they search for a word
Word doesn't see it - they pdf-ed the document and could find it then. My
suggestion was that they had something in the More bit activated (e.g. match
case or some formatting) but they swear no. Is there anything else that could
cause this? For example I know spellcheck skips stuff in fields if you're not
concentrating...

Yes... if the document contains tracked changes that are not displayed, it
can prevent Find from finding words that contain embedded corrections.
