Hello Brandt,

You turn change tracking on in the Edit menu of Pages. For the changes to be 
shown in a text box, go to the View menu and select Show Comments and Changes 
Pane.

When you navigate in the document using the VO keys, you'll only see the 
current text, but if you use just the arrow keys, you'll see the previous text 
stuck to the new text. The previous text has no text attributes!

By stopping interacting with the page, then interacting once more, you'll hear 
how many items are on the page. If there are more than 3, you have at least one 
change.

You textbox is identified as track changes comment layout item. Interact with 
this and navigating with the VO keys, you'll find the Accept change button, the 
Reject change button and a dimmed textbox which VO will read as person's name, 
at date and time,  Replaced: the replaced word. There is then a deleted text 
button.

As far as I can tell, there is no way of finding out what the text was replaced 
with unless you go through the page character by character.

However, with a Braille display, you see the replaced text stuck to the new 
text. So, with a combination of audio and Braille, it is possible to track 
changes!

I hadn't tried with a Braille display before but it appears to be the answer.

Sorry for the ramble, but I was doing the tests while writing this message.

Cheers,

Anne
