exporting data from reviewing pane in Word

[Mary.]

Can anyone explain how i can "grab" the contents of the reviewing pane so
that it can be made into a new document? either in Word or Excel is fine.

I have printed the contents of the reviewing pane but need to be able to
copy and paste them into a new document of their own that shows tracked
changes between documents.

I've also tried using Adobe (professional) to export . . . have scanned the
printed document - and now I'm running out of ideas!

Can anyone help?

If you've been able to print the markup to PDF, then you should be able
to copy and paste from that. If you can't, try setting Acrobat or your
scanner to OCR the text, not just scan/pdf it. OCR should attempt to
convert it to text.

(by the way--markup is the word Word uses for all changes and comments
that are shown in the reviewing pane)

Thanks Daiya - but I tired that too! The OCR option won't allow me to copy
and paste all the text. It seem to be seleting only some. and then when I try
to paste into Word there are SO many jumbles and incorrect words it's almost
unworkable. It's a BIG documet! . . . 120 pages.

Would appreciate any oother ideas.
