Coakley等人描述了他们如何开发版本感知Word文档，这是一种增强的文档表示，包括自包含和可移植的详细版本历史。然而，他们无法采用基于唯一ID的技术，这些技术已被证明支持有效的合并和差分算法。本应用笔记描述了如何调整MS Word的OOXML表示的现有功能，以提供适合这些算法的唯一元素ID系统。这需要接管Word的修订保存ID（RSID）系统，还需要定义为不支持RSID机制的元素指定ID值的过程。重要的限制仍然存在，但似乎可以克服。
Coakley et al. described how they developed Version Aware Word Documents, which is an enhanced document representation that includes a detailed version history that is self-contained and portable. However, they were not able to adopt the unique-ID-based techniques that have been shown to support efficient merging and differencing algorithms. This application note describes how it is possible to adapt existing features of MS Word's OOXML representation to provide a system of unique element IDs suitable for those algorithms. This requires taking over Word's Revision Save ID (RSID) system and also defining procedures for specifying ID values for elements that do not support the RSID mechanism. Important limitations remain but appear surmountable.
