It does not mark the document as changed for purposes of retrieval. It marks sections of a document as changed for purposes of showing a reader where revisions from the previous version have been made. This is quite commonly used in technical documentation. Typically the changed areas are marked with "revision bars" which are vertical lines in the left margin next to the changed lines. Michael Johnson Relay Technology, Inc.
