I'm going to start with an example for this to be well understood.
I have a 6 pages word document and periodically I have to change some data in it, but not everything, just certain words or phrases.
I like to use word highlighting (yellow color marking) to remember which fields must be modified.
Before printing, I have to remove the highlighting for the entire document or disable it. There is a simple way to disable / enable highlighting from Word options -> display and under page display options - check / uncheck "Show highlighter marks".
I think it's annoying and time consuming to have to go in options every time to check / uncheck that option, so I looked for a workaround.
At first, I tried with comments (Review tab - Comments branch) which is easier because you only have to select "Final" instead of "Final: Show Markup" in the Review tab - Tracking branch.
All nice, but if I add comment for an entire paragraph, but I also want to highlight (with the yellow highlight tool) a certain area inside that paragraph, I can't because comment markup overrides highlighting.
Thus, I had to find a way to keep my color highlighting because of the different color possibilities. So I looked for a way to enable / disable "Show highlighter marks" from the registry.
Here starts the actual tutorial:
1. Creating the enable highlighting registry file:
a. Open notepad
b. Copy and paste the following text in notepad:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\word]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\word\options]
"showhighlight"=dword:00000001 |
Note: The 14.0 key works for Office 2010. You can check which is yours in C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office and edit the key name accordingly.
c. Click on File - Save As
d. Under "Save as type" select "All files"
e. Save your file to the desired location (eg. D:\) with the name highlight-yes.reg
2. Creating the disable highlighting registry file:
a. Open notepad
b. Copy and paste the following text in notepad:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\word]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\word\options]
"showhighlight"=dword:00000000 |
Note: The 14.0 key works for Office 2010. You can check which is yours in C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office and edit the key name accordingly.
c. Click on File - Save As
d. Under "Save as type" select "All files"
e. Save your file to the desired location (eg. D:\) with the name highlight-no.reg
3. Creating the bat file to enable highlighting silently (without confirmation):
a. Open notepad
b. Copy and paste the following text in notepad:
| regedit.exe /s D:\highlight-yes.reg |
c. Click on File - Save As
d. Under "Save as type" select "All files"
e. Save your file to the desired location (eg. D:\) with the name highlight-yes.bat
4. Creating the bat file to disable highlighting silently (without confirmation):
a. Open notepad
b. Copy and paste the following text in notepad:
| regedit.exe /s D:\highlight-no.reg |
c. Click on File - Save As
d. Under "Save as type" select "All files"
e. Save your file to the desired location (eg. D:\) with the name highlight-no.bat
5. For this step you need a software called SlickRun - I use it to create shortcuts for document opening. But not keyboard shortcuts, but text shortcuts, as in typing r1 for opening a document, r2 for opening another one. After SlickRun is installed, you can create a list of "magic words" which can open documents, websites, applications or any type of file if you have the appropriate file reader installed. I set the CTRL+R keyboard shortcut to open the command line in SlickRun, you can use default or whichever suits you best (you can set it up in SlickRun's options).
a. Open command line with your keyboard shortcut (CTRL+R in my case).
b. Right click on it and select "New Magic Word"
c. In the MagicWord field type the desired text shortcut, like "y" without "
d. Copy the exact path of the file you wish to open, in our case D:\highlight-yes.bat. You can do this either by entering it manually or by clicking on the field's name - File Name or URL, to browse for your file.
e. Do the same as above, but replace y with n and select the highlight-no.bat file.
After both shortcuts are created, every time you want to disable highlighting in order to print a word document, just use the keyboard shortcut to open SlickRun command line (CTRL+R in my case) and type n then hit the enter key. Reopen your word document for this setting to be activated, then print. Close the document, enable highlighting by typing y in SlickRun's command line, then reopen to see all highlights back. If you have multiple documents open you might have to close / reopen them all.
This looks difficult but it helps me. It might not be that useful to you.
The only downside I find for this is having to close / reopen all word documents before the setting applies.
