Default How do you define strikthrough color?

For more on the EQ field approach, see
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Overbar.htm. If the goal is to
strikethrough multiple letters, say an entire word, it would help if you
were using a monospaced font.

This isn't something you can do in any kind of general way.

In specific cases, you can use overstriking (either with an EQ field, or
an Advance field) to overlay a coloured strikethrough. This avoids most of
the positioning issues but comes a bit unstuck at line breaks.

Strikethrough is part of the character, so it won't be a different
color from the rest of the character. You could use the drawing tool
to make a straight line and position it over the words to be struck
through, but keeping it aligned with them would be tricky.

Typically black strikethough. Would like red strikethroughs. Thank you!
