Description luisperales815 2024-11-14 15:08:07 UTC
Description:
When recording changes, although they are initially well reported, once you save and close a document, some tracked changes are marked as the deletion of the immediate word, sentence or character. 
This cuases some problems, as accepting changes means deleting a lot of not intended changes so marked. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Record and view changes. Use several changes: adding text, deleting, modifying,...
2. Save and close the document
3. Open and compare changes with marked results. 

Actual Results:
Some marked changes do not correspond with the intended ones. 
Unable to identified when this happens, as it always happens but not with all the changes. 

Expected Results:
Changes are properly marked and ready to be accepted/rejected, either one by one or together. 


Reproducible: Always

In the doc you can find the different version of the trackedchanges document. 

It seems the changes and unitended deletions ocurred when the document was saved as Word 97-2003.
