Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using Document Compare with a document that has three parallel columns. If she has deleted a couple of words in the first column, when she generates, the phrase that had text deleted in the first column is redlined, and the phrase is added again in the second column in strikeout. Also, the text that was in the second column is shifted to the third column. Solutions: The documents are compared phrase by phrase. Phrase markers include punctuation marks such as periods, commas, exclamation points, question marks, colons, and semicolons. Also included as phrase markers are hard returns, hard page breaks, footnote and endnote codes and the end of the page. With this customer's document, the first column had no comma, hard return, or period after the sentence. It ended with a hard page break, [HPg], which brought her to the second column. Again she had no period at the end of the sentence, so when the Document Compare feature was executed, it took the beginning of the sentence as the start phrase marker and the HPg code as the ending phrase marker.
