Issue: The specification platform is publishing additional text in my spec that is not in the editor when I publish with detailed revisions.

Solution: Please check that your stylesheet contains the 'Detailed revisions' styles. When you publish with detailed revisions, the platform publishes both the text that was added and the text that was deleted from your previous version. If your stylesheet does not contain the detailed revision styles, all of this added and deleted text will appear as normal black text. You will not see which text was added or deleted.


Please note: it is intended for the Table of Contents not to show the added and deleted text styling. You should see the added and deleted styling throughout the body of the specification. 


Please follow this guide: Updating existing stylesheets – adding detailed revisions styles.
