No Markup changes the view; it does not remove the revision history from a Word document. Turning Track Changes off also leaves existing revisions in place. That distinction matters when preparing a clean copy for a recipient who should see only the agreed text.

Keep the reviewed original, then create a separately named release copy. Decide who is authorised to accept wording changes before cleaning it. Accepting a deletion is a content decision, not merely a way to remove a coloured mark.

Resolve the text before checking presentation

In desktop Word, display All Markup and include all reviewers and relevant change types. Work through revisions using the Review tab’s Accept and Reject controls. Use an all-changes command only when every remaining revision has been decided.

Inspect comments separately. Microsoft treats modern comments separately from Track Changes, so resolving revisions does not by itself complete the comment review. Remove comments that should not be in the release copy after preserving any discussion you need in the original.

If further edits should be untracked, turn tracking off deliberately after the review. Where tracking is locked or the document is controlled by its owner, obtain the intended final version through that process rather than trying to work around the restriction.

Reopen the actual attachment candidate

Save and close the release copy, then reopen that exact file. Show the markup controls again and check for remaining revisions or comments. Read the sentences around deletions and moved text; a visually clean page can still contain an editorial mistake.

For printed output, the Print Markup option controls whether annotations appear on paper. Clearing it does not sanitise the editable document. Inspect the final PDF or print preview separately, especially page breaks altered by accepted text.

Keep the clean file’s name distinct from the review copy so the correct version can be selected when sharing. Do not delete the review original merely because the release copy looks finished.
