"Markup" in MS Word Viewer

[Guest]

I have "Markup" viewing turned off in my Word document; and it opens in Word
with "Markup" viewing turned off. When opened in Word Viewer the document is
displayed in a "Markup" view. How do I make it open in Word Viewer without
defaulting to "Markup" view?

You can't.

Word Viewer is simply Word with bits cut off. Word opens each document in
the view it was last saved in. Since Word Viewer won't allow you to save,
you can't change the view.
