Hi all,
I have pretty much the same question as @blahedo here:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/how-can-i-distill-track-changes-text-into-formatted-text/27548
Is there any way of converting “tracked changes” into formatted text? I simply need it to be formatted because the receiving side insists. It is not an option to provide “tracked changes”.
The receiving party is a client, a huge company. They do not accept a document with tracked changes. This is internal policy because they want to further process the document, and they can process formatting but not tracked changes.
This is simply a fact that I cannot change…
The deleted sections from tracked changes should be formatted as [[deleted text]] (with double square brackets at the beginning and the end). The added text should be formatted underlined.
I would “search and replace” the underlined text with a regular expression, if I could convert deleted into underlined text.
I would also search for deleted text and replace it, if this would be possible. But I could not find a way to do this…
I would also use a script, but I am not a programmer and never wrote any script for LibreOffice. If anybody could give me some hints, I would try this…
Thanks
