Note After reviewing annotations in a file, you can delete them if they are no longer needed. See Deleting Annotations.
Note When you track changes, every change to the document—along with the user who performed the change—will be stored in the document’s markup. When a change is accepted or rejected, all markup designating it as a change is removed. When all changes in the document are resolved, they will not contain any history of changes made and can be considered ready for output.
Note By default, tracked changes are visible only in the editor in MadCap Flare, as well as in Central or Contributor (depending on the review method you are using). Tracked changes that have not yet been accepted are not visible when previewing the topic in Flare or when viewing any output generated from it. You can preserve tracked changes in PDF and Word output so unaccepted changes will appear in these outputs.
