I have a user who has selected to track changes by author. She is the first
person to make changes to the document but her changes are being tracked in
purple.

I thought when changes are tracked by Author, the first author's changes are
red, the second author is in blue, and every author after that is randomly
assigned a color that you have no control over.

This user wants her changes displayed in red but she wants to keep the "by
author" setting and not manually select red because others will be making
changes, too, and she wants them displayed in different colors.

I've never seen Word have the first author's changes show up in a color
other than red. Is there any place to change this?

Thanks.
