Usage

On the Ribbon Menu, under Add-Ins, these new items will appear:

1. Insert Figure/Table Ref: Finds the next Figure or Table caption and inserts the linked reference at the cursor. Great for quickly adding the next table/figure reference.

2. Convert Heading to Reference: Converts plain text outline number (e.g. 1.1.2) into a cross-reference to the corresponding heading number. Great for creating indexes to sections of documents. Note that this macro only adds references to headings, not paragraphs. 

3. Fix Field Formatting: Changes all fields so that they do not retain formatting like bold or size. Useful for resetting the format of a field.

4. Update All Fields: Updates all fields in document.

5. Show Blackline and PDF: Changes the view to show legal blackline markups and then saves the document as a PDF.

6. Legal Blackline Comparison: Compares the current open document with an older version of the document of your choice.
