Exporting to PDF File--can't get ride of Track Changes formatting

Even though my document version is "final", when I export my Word document to
a PDF creator, it still keeps the Track Changes formatting, showing a greatly
reduced version of the document in the PDF format.

Hi, Beth, it doesn't matter if I've accepted the changes and turne off
comments, etc. When I export to PDF it still shrinks the document to a
fraction of the page. It does not display any changes, just greatly shrinks
the document. I've tried turning off everything about the Markup features.
Nothing works. I'm beginning to think it is a bug, because it pertains to all
documents I open in Word. How do I get rid of the default track changes
document mode when I load Word? Maybe that would help?

Word doesn't track changes by default. If your new documents have Track
Changes turned on then chances are Track Changes is set in your Normal
template, Normal.dot or Normal.dotm depending on the version of Word you are
using.

If the output of a document is still showing the Markup Area then there is
still some type of tracked change in the document. You mentioned Comments
were "turned off". Do you mean they have been removed from view or deleted?

Also, what version of Word are you using?
