How to Turn Off Markup in Microsoft Word Print Comments Inline

When working on a document, it's common to add comments and markup to highlight important information, suggest changes, or provide feedback. However, when it's time to print the document, you may want to turn off these comments and markup to ensure that only the content is displayed. In this article, we'll show you two simple ways to print your Microsoft Word document without comments or markup.

Method 1: Adjust Print Settings

To turn off markup in your print settings, follow these steps:

• Go to the Review tab and Tracking section of the ribbon.

• In the Tracking group, click on the arrow next to 'Print Markup' and select it to deselect it.

• Click on the arrow again to display the settings.

• In the drop-down box below Settings, you should see the pages you can print.

By following these steps, you'll be able to hide comments and markup temporarily. This does not affect their displaying in your actual document, but they won't appear in your printed document. You should see the checkmark next to 'Print Markup' disappear when you look at your print preview on the right.

Method 2: Disable Markup Ahead of Time

Alternatively, if you prefer to disable the markup and comments in your document ahead of time, you can do so by following these steps:

• Go to the Review tab and Tracking section of the ribbon.

• Click on the arrow next to 'Print Markup' and select it to deselect it.

By doing this, you won't see any comments or markup when you look at your print preview. This method does not affect their displaying in your actual document, but they won't appear in your printed document.

In conclusion, turning off markup in Microsoft Word is a simple process that can be done through either adjusting the print settings or disabling the markup ahead of time. By following these steps, you'll be able to ensure that only the content is displayed when printing your document.
