Thanks for responding, Charles.



Yes, the proofed version is different, but I'm transferring the edits from the PDF. I realize now that it would have been better to proof in Word instead using Track Changes. Lesson learned.

Yes, changing the hyphenation changes the paragraph formatting. I just didn't expect it to change the first lines of the paragraph when the hyphenation change was made at the end of the paragraph. Again, lesson learned that it's better to let Word have its way and explain to the client about Word reformatting.

As far as maintaining compatibility, I failed to say that I was saving my own document as a new document when Word gave me this option. That's why I found it odd. Why wouldn't it be compatible with 2013 already? Or was 2013 upgraded behind the scenes, thereby requiring last week's documents to be made compatible with this week's upgrades? Inquiring minds and all that.

It's all good. Every time I trip on a Word quirk, I learn new things.

Best,
Julie Klein
