We are using the PDF Tools v6 - 'Convert Files to PDFs' tool. When used to convert Word 2010 files that are tracking changes, the tool always creates pdf files that show all markups and comments - even if the Word files are saved with all changes and comments suppressed (Final view). This behavior renders the tool useless to us. Is there a setting or any means of changing the behavior such that pdf files created do not display changes and comments?
Thanks.

Issue resolved.
This is not a PDF Tools issue, but rather how Word requires a user to accept all changes and to turn off 'Track Changes' to allow the document to open or print without displaying changes or comments - regardless of what view is saved.
