Thumbs up Answer: Convert Track Change Format to "Regular" Word Format

Yes, there is a way to convert text with track change's underline and strikethrough formats to text with "regular" underline and strikethrough format. Here are the steps to do it:
  1. Open the document with track changes turned on.
  2. Click on the "Review" tab in the ribbon.
  3. Click on the "Show Markup" dropdown menu.
  4. Uncheck the "Formatting" option. This will hide the track changes formatting and show only the text.
  5. Select all the text in the document by pressing "Ctrl+A" on your keyboard.
  6. Click on the "Home" tab in the ribbon.
  7. Click on the "Font" dropdown menu.
  8. Select the underline and strikethrough options that you want to use. You can also choose the color of the underline and strikethrough by clicking on the "Font Color" dropdown menu.
  9. Click on the "Review" tab in the ribbon.
  10. Click on the "Show Markup" dropdown menu.
  11. Check the "Formatting" option. This will show the track changes formatting again.

Now, the text in the document will have the underline and strikethrough formats that you selected, without the track changes formatting. This should make it easier for all readers to see the changes in the document, regardless of their track changes preferences.
