Is there an article somewhere that lays out the procedures and modes of changes and review. Between "Mark as Final" under --File--info--protect document, and the enable editing choice, and the options under Review, and compatibility vs Convert, and finally the protection devices, I am totally confused. My secretary and I (she uses an older version) could not figure out how to remove with finality the showing of tracked changes on an AIA document. I finally had to send on in pdf mode. I had this issue last week and incorrectly thought I had it figured out--namely by going to the permissions and doing Mark as Final, and then going to "accept changes" it would work, but when I save in clean form (and I do get a clean form by choosing the "Final" option after mark as final), as soon as I attach or re-open, it shows all changes from the beginning of time--literally changes made a year ago on an unrelated transaction and I cannot make a permanent clean form. None of these problems with word perfect, sad to say.
Summary: Between all the modes, on top of which is a variety of protection modes, my accept changes and other view modes either get ghosted or else are virtually impossible to deal with. I can never tell which matrix is responsible for which modes, and there are seemingly a number of different matrixes operating simultaneously. How specifically do I save a clean form which will open as such, and then allow myself the choice--with that clean form--of sending in a protected or unprotected mode.? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
