Default Show/Hide Text

I'm teaching a class with "fill in the blank" style material.
I want to print a teachers copy and a students copy. One will have the
blanks filled in already.

Is there an easy way to do this in Word, without making two separate
documents?

Thanks in advance,

Matthew

Default Show/Hide Text

Format the text as white; then print the students' copies. Restore to
original font color, and then print the teacher's copy.

Alternatively, you can use hidden text. To print it, check the "Hidden
text" option on the Print tab of Tools | Options; to not print it,
clear the option.

Note that hidden paragraphs of text will not take up any space in your
document, whereas paragraphs formatted in white text will.

Note that the easiest way to apply the formatting to text is by using
styles. If you need assistance with this, start at
