Reply to comments and mark
Comments now have a reply button. You can debate and easily track
comments right next to the relevant text. And when a comment is
addressed and no longer requires attention, you can mark it as done. It
will be greyed out to keep out of your way, but the conversation will still
be there if you need to revisit it later.
Open and edit PDFs
Opening and editing PDFs is finally a full-fledged feature in Word 2013.
In past versions, you could save a Word document as a PDF, but you
couldn’t edit a PDF without converting it to a Word document first. Now
you simply open a PDF as if it is a Word document and edit it as usual.
Word handles just about any PDF you want to work with, even if it has
multiple tables, large images, different fonts, and so on—all without the
need of a third‑party application
