Hints and tips

The tracked amendment change which appear in the Editor when viewing auto-applied amendments is different from the tracked changes created by enabling change-tracking from the toolbar, by clicking the binoculars . This means that the Accept All button on the Inline Amendments panel will not do anything to tracked changes made using the Editor's tracked change feature. You can therefore use tracked change mode in the Editor to capture any printing point changes required in and around the amendments once they have been applied. Then, when you accept the tracked amendment changes, the printing point changes will remain so that you can share that version with Counsel for review.

Non-amendment tracked changes in the Editor can be easily dealt with using the Accept and Reject options in the Review right-hand panel.
