Default Help with Tracking: Bold in body text, but not in Footnotes

Hi, I'm using MS Word 2007.

I'm working on modernization of a text from the 1600's, and for every spelling change I make I am required to bold the altered word. I am also supposed to be tracking changes I make to the unrevised document.

I have been using MS Word's Track Changes option, and I set it so that all newly inserted text was to be made bold. Nice and easy.

However, I'm also doing annotation for the document, and with these tracking settings all of my footnotes are now in bold text. This is a problem, because I can't go back and un-bold the footnotes.

Is there any way that I can have the tracking changes so that words inserted into the body text are bold, while references I insert are not?

Thanks.
