<b>Subject:</b> [E-trademarks] Comparison of Text and Using Outlook<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I routinely need to compare text and want to show that comparison in track changes in Outlook to a client. For example, examiners sometimes suggest proposed goods/services. I routinely copy the original goods/services, copy the examiner's
proposal, and then see a bunch of changes not reflected in the proposed goods/services--the lack of transparency is not the point here. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I typically use <a href="https://link.edgepilot.com/s/52c2b6f1/yIItJK08s0uWhZVmn33zfQ?u=https://www.ddginc-usa.com/text-compare-tool.htm">https://link.edgepilot.com/s/52c2b6f1/yIItJK08s0uWhZVmn33zfQ?u=https://www.ddginc-usa.com/text-compare-tool.htm</a>.
It works great. But, when I copy the output (which shows additions and deletions) and paste it into Outlook, half the formatting is gone. The additions are not underlined anymore. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am ultimately looking for some way to easily compare two blocks of text (without having to create two documents) and paste the comparison into outlook and have that text look like track changes. Preferably, it would be blue underline
and red strikethrough. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope one of you figured this out. Thanks. <o:p></o:p></p>
