I received a document with track changes but the colors were too light to
read when printed or when looking at on screen. I sent the document to
someone else and the colors were much brighter. We even fowarded it back to
me but the colors were the same dull, hard to read colors as I originally
got. How can you change the colors for each reviewer?
This is not the first encounter I've had with this problem.
If you have a solution, I'd love to hear it!

Unfortunately, when you set the colors to be "By Author," you relinquish
control over the colors used. You might try to psych Word out by changing
your name on the User Information tab to introduce a new "reviewer" and see
what this does for the cause.

I tried that but it only affects me, not the others, which is what ultimately
needs to be changed. Too bad I can't right click on the reviewer's color and
change it. Thanks for your tip.

Hmm. I would expect that adding a reviewer would cause some of the other
colors to change. How about if you change your name, make a few small
changes, then change your name again?
