Hi John, I can't share a work document. I'll try and create a document and share it so that you can see what I mean. It's really crazy. Every time I try to read a comment, the comment doesn't correspond to the place where I last was in the text. For some reason I also keep randomly being moved around in the document, for example, it jumps to the end, even though I did not make it do that. I really don't understand at all how this could be usable. My plan is just to use Pages, and then re-export to word. I'll just have to check and make sure all fonts an formatting stick. Thanks, Donna
