Another idea -- this is what I usually do -- is to keep a master document
that no one but you can touch. Set the edited doc up next to your master and
manually transfer the changes to your master document. This allows you to
completely control both the text and the format. If the reviewer adds large
blocks of new text, you can paste it into your master unformatted (Paste
Special/Unformatted Text) and then edit it, of course :-).
I suspect that my way might be archaic, but it works.
