Abstract

A shared document is displayed in a customized form with highlighted content that identifies significant portions of the document. The highlighted content draws a user's attention to the portions of the document that may have been modified, deleted or added by others since the last time the user accessed the document. The highlighted content directs a user to modified document portions that the user has not yet read.
