This will provide all the information about the font and colour.

Then, you could copy and paste it into Notepad. Then, you could select the whole Notepad contents, copy and paste it into a new email, and send it back to that sighted person and they would know if any of the formatting remained. I think it would be gone, unless I'm seriously mistaken, since Notepad only deals with plain text. Hth, Rod From: Van Lant, Robin [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, December 15, 2014 12:18 PM To: gwi Subject: advice sought - just had another horribly embarrassing issue at work Guys, I often work on documents for executives at our company. Last week I needed to send everyone a compilation of nominations they'd sent in. I copied some from Word documents and most fro m Outlook messages sent to me. I placed them into a Word 2010 format Before I sent them, I selected all the text and changed the font to black, which I don't find easy in Word and would love any advice there, and also removed all highlighting, because I know one manager had highlighted the nominee's names. Today, I got a reply from one of the execs saying that he was very disappointed that his nomination was red-lined. I honestly don't know how that happened. I don't know if it's a track changes thing, which I had not turned on, or some other thing. I often have a coworker check the formatting before I sent, but it was late on Friday and I wanted to get it out. I am so dreadfully embarrassed here and discouraged that I cannot send out documents on my own without a proofer for these kinds of visual things. Advice please from my Word experts!
