If the formatting isn't important (headers, footers, page numbers) I'd
just save the body text without formatting. Save them into a related table
of 'versions' with the hash and date and stuff. If they want the formatting
and the whole smash I'd save them as a PDF. The point is you want to
prevent changing that archive copy.
