Tickmarks

You can add tickmarks in both Microsoft® Word and Excel.  The Tickmarks Toolbar is available from the PPC menu, and you can insert tickmarks and a tickmark legend. The tickmark legend will be inserted at the bottom of Word documents. Once you define a tickmark, the definitions will be saved immediately. You can insert tickmarks into all document types except the following:
  • Areas denoted as hidden (such as Practical Considerations)
  • Areas that contain a text box, callout, comment, footnote or endnote
  • User documents that are protected
  • When the clipboard is not available or has been turned off
note
In Microsoft® Word, tickmarks are visible only in Web Layout or Print Layout views.  Also, we recommend not changing the current tickmark styles because that could inhibit any future rollforward feature.
