Printing highlighted changes

Hello!

How do I print a sheet that has highlighted changes shown? If I send it directly to the printer or export the sheet the highlights disappear. Does it matter if the sheet is "View Only"?

Thanks,

Peggy

    Peggy,

     

    I tested this with a sheet I have view-only privileges and can print to pdf with highlighted changes shown.

    It must be something else.

     

    I'm having no problems using Edge or Chrome.

    When you print/export a sheet, the result will be however the sheet was at the last save. Because you are a viewer - you cannot save the sheet.

     

    While you are able to turn on highlight changes, you cannot save this setting which is likely why it is not included when your print/export.

     

    Ask someone with Editor, Admin, or Owner permissions on the sheet to enable highlight changes and save the sheet. Once they have done that, try printing/exporting.

    Travis! I totally glossed over that. I'm so used to save now, save often, that I did not think about that. Nice one.
