Hi,
I am trying very, very hard not to have to do this in Word, because I don’t like using Word until I run the writing aids on my text (e.g. Grammarly, ProWritingAid, etc.).
Having said that…
I have a Master document with a bunch ODT files. I want to edit all the files independently but I need to track the changes so my editor can see them.
My editor uses Word. So…
I would like to export the master document as a single file that includes all of the tracked changes. I tested this on one small sub-document with small changes and when I export to a single ODT document, all the tracked changes disappear. In fact, they don’t even appear in the master document.
Other than creating a big document containing all the text (which makes it very difficult to use my writing aid tools), is there a way to accomplish what I want?
Basically I want to:
- Work on chapters individually
- Track changes
- Put all my chapters in a single document with the tracked changes visible
- Export to Word (I’m assuming it will keep the tracked changes
Thanks,
L
P.S. FWIW, I’m trying to use the Master Document feature in WOrd. It shows the tracked changes, but for reasons that escape me, when I try to insert a document in the master document, it fails 90-95% of the time.
