Let’s say you’ve got a document that’s hundreds of pages long. There are various comments spread throughout that you’d like to look over on paper. Sadly, when you try printing out your document, the comments don’t display properly. Don’t you wish you could print out the comments themselves? Actually, you can, and it’s super easy to do.

First, open your document. The comments should show up immediately. If they don’t, click on the Review tab. Select Simple Markup if you only want to see the comments or All Markup if you want to see what the comments are referencing. No Markup hides the comments and any revisions you’ve made to your document. Original is pretty much the same thing as No Markup.Unless you only want to print comments from one person, make sure you have All Reviewers selected under Show Markup > Specific People. With that info out of the way, it’s time to start printing. Take your mouse and click on the File tab.Once you’ve done that, select Print.Under Settings click on Print All Pages and List of Markup. Note that once you do this, your print preview won’t update. But when you print it, it will produce a list of markup instead of the document.Now click Print. You’re done!

One last thing: If you have a bunch of tracked changes on your document and comments, those will be included in your list of markup.

If you’d rather only see comments, go to the Review pane and click Show Markup and deselect everything but Comments before you print.
