      Description

      1. The review or track changes function in Word Processor is used to track the changes that have been done to a word document. It can be thought of as the Confluence's view change function. For more information regarding this function, refer to the references section below.
      2. However, currently the viewfile macro ignores this feature and displays everything that are readable in the document.
      3. Attached are examples of the current behaviour of the viewfile macro.
      4. It would be nice if the viewfile macro can show only the latest changes of the file.
