Reviewing and Revising
Documents

In this chapter, learn how to use change tracking, comments,
and other Pages features that are useful when you review
and revise documents.

Pages includes several features that are especially useful when you’re revising a
document:

 Change tracking: Track changes within a document until you decide which edits you

want to accept or reject.

 Comments: Like margin notes, they allow you to annotate a paragraph without

changing it.

 Color and font changes: Draw attention to particular parts of a document by

modifying color and font style. For example, color the background of several
paragraphs orange, and then use a comment at the beginning of the document to
ask reviewers to help complete the orange paragraphs.

This chapter focuses on change tracking and comments. To learn about emphasizing
text using color and font changes, see “Formatting Text Size and Appearance” on
page 75
and “Adding Accents and Special Characters” on page 81. Instructions for using
color appear in “Setting Character and Paragraph Fill Colors” on page 104.
