The Author Review preferences panel is opened from menu Options > Preferences > Editor > Edit modes > Author > Review.
The available preferences are:
Author - The name of the user who performs the changes when
Track Changes is active for a given editor. This information is
associated with each performed change.
Initial Track Changes State - Controls the initial
Track Changes state.
Stored in document - Recommended when multiple editors work on
the same set of documents because the state of Track Changes
(enabled/disabled) is kept in the edited document. When you open such a document and the
Store in document option is active, if the
<?oxy_options track_changes="on"?> processing instruction was
saved in the document, the Track Changes is enabled. When this
option is enabled and you open a document in the Author mode, the Track
Changes state is restored from the previous use of the document. This
means that if another user edited the document with Track Changes
turned on before sending it to you, you will also have Track
Changes switched on when you open it in the Author mode.
Always On - The Track Changes feature is
active when you open a document.
Always Off - The Track Changes feature
is inactive when you open a document.
Note:Initial Track Changes State options do not affect
documents already open in the Author mode.
