SOLVED (I hope) RE: Can you suggest a way to manage this process?

["O'Shea ,Elizabeth" <Elizabeth -dot- OShea -at- Elan -dot- com>]

Thanks everyone for your input. I've gone for a hybrid of different
suggestions:

1. I created a new copy in a different folder and accepted all the changes.

2. I turned on Track changes and show them only in the printed document.

3. I created an individual copy for each reviewer, appending their initials
to the file name. (I neglected to put the file name in the footer of the
doc, which I may live to regret. But I can always write that in.)

4. I mailed everyone their copy, a copy of the live document, and an
invitation to a review meeting.

The next steps: Some of the reviewers will review their copies before the
meeting and bring a printed copy with them. I'll have spare printed copies
for everyone else. I'll have the working document open and projected onto a
screen. We can agree the changes and I can implement them right then.

Surprisingly, only one person can't officially make the meeting.
Unsurprisingly, only one person of 9 has actually accepted the invitation.

Thanks again for your input. I'll let you know how smoothly it goes.
