LiveEdit allows you to preview and edit your document before it is delivered according to the specified method like email and download. To use Live Edit, see Using Live Edit to a Solution.

Live Edit is a simple copy/paste of the content out of the Word document, edited in Rich Text, and pasted back to the Word document.

Live Edit does not support all Composer processes. For example, headers and footers are not supported and Live Edit does not handle watermarks or background colors.
