Default The "Final Showing Markup" change-tracking markups keep stubbornlyreappearing in pastes of text, and etc.

For a Creative Fiction Writing class assignment, I enabled "Track
Changes" and got the document to show all changes done to it, because
one of the final writing assignments was to print out a copy of the
paper with the changes highlighted.

I of course printed out the paper with the "Final," without showing
the change-tracking mark-ups.

Now, I plan to paste my story onto a blog. I hit a HUGE snag:

First of all, when I reopened my story, it was in the change-tracking
mode again, with all the changes highlighted, and etc. So I changed it
from "Final showing markup" to "Final," therefore removing ALL the
mark-ups that indicated changes to the documents. (Also, when I save
it in the view that does not show these change-tracking mark-ups,
close, and re-open the document, these change-tracking mark-ups
reappear.)

Then when I pasted my story, the WYSIWYG editor on Blogger.com showed
me all the underlines, strikethroughs, and mark-ups indicating changes
to the story. That was the snag.

How do I get it so that the document copies and pastes the CLEAN,
final text, without all those change-tracking mark-ups, onto my
blogsite's editor? I've been scouring throughout MS Word 2007's
functionality options and I'm not one step closer to solving this
problem so far.

Please help, so I can finally get this story posted online without any
trouble. Thanks,
