How do I change font colors of reviewers? Two reviewers comments appear in
red. and there's no way to change them that I can see.

Once you have selected "By Author," you are at Word's mercy, unfortunately.

Hi =?Utf-8?B?Sm9uIEJhdWVy?=,

Tools/Options/Reviewing. You have to set the color to "By author" to have
different authors' changes in different colors. And no, there's no way to
assign one author a specific color.

Thanks! But no thanks to Microsoft. That's a real flaw. Often I end up
having 2 of 3 reviewers (one of whom is me) appearing in the same font color,
which defeats the purpose of the feature to a great extent. Microsoft, are
you reading this? Any plans to fix this?

Well, that's not working as designed. You may get the same color for
different reviewers on different machines, but there should be distinct
colors for different reveiwers on any given machine.
