Proofreading Preview for Word

As it is now, proofreading a document on screen is very difficult. I
currenly print out a document, proof it, mark all the errors, and then go
back and fix it. This is both wasteful of time, ink, paper, et ergo money.

I think it would be enormously helpful if you could preview a document in
proofread mode. What I'm suggesting is a virtual rulter, or other inch deep
straight line (pure black would work fine, there is no need for mesaurement
marks) which spanned the document and could be moved down line by line via
the enter or the down arrow key.

Helen,

I hope you look back here....

There is a low vision aid Magnifier that is freely available; from
Microsoft It should do what you want although not as elegantly as
you''d like. I believe I found it by looking into accessability
features.

Good luck,
