New Features & Improvements$$$Redline in Excel now available to all users$$$Generate redlined Excel files using our new Redline in Excel Comparison Type$$$From v24.9.1; users can generate redline outputs in Excel files; expanding Draftables redlining comparison capabilities beyond Word and PDFs. This feature; previously in preview mode; is now generally available and allows for a more comprehensive review of spreadsheet-based agreements; financials; and other legal documents. $$$$$$Our Redline in Excel comparison type uses a new purpose-built comparison algorithm specific to spreadsheets; and can detect and highlight where formula changes are the cause of markups (shown as yellow boxed groups of cells with notes outlining formula changes). The output also displays where whole sheets are deleted or inserted; and where rows or columns are inserted or deleted using blue and pink shading.
