Use the usual highlighting. When you get ready to print, clear the check box
for "Highlight" on the View tab of Tools | Options. If the highlighting is
not displayed, it will not print. (IMO it would be preferable for this to be
a separate check box on the Print tab, similar to "Drawing objects," "Field
codes," "Hidden text," etc., but that is not the case.)
