Track changes - 'final' vs 'mark-up' view

2012-03-14 Thread Maggie Donovan
Hello Lyx users

 

I'm very new to LyX (or any TeX-based system). Have recently installed it in
order to edit a journal paper written in LyX.

 

I have Windows 7 with MikTeX 2.9 and LyX 2.0.3.

 

I've read the user guide, experimented and generally hunted around, but am
still not sure of the following:

 

*When working with track changes, is it possible to work with the document
looking as if the changes have been made (= MS Word 'Final' view) and with
any notes (comments) hidden?*

 

So far the only mode I've found is to see all changes and notes while I'm
working (= MS Word 'Final: Show Markup'), which can be intrusive and also
less clear around issues of spacing.

 

I've read in the user guide about needing the LaTeX package dvipost to do
this (if I understood correctly) but I can't see it in the TeX catalogue,
nor find convincingly up-to-date information about it on the net.

 

Very many thanks, in hope.

 

Maggie
