Hello Hendrik, Tracking changes is complicated in Pages on the Mac. I'm currently trying to find an acceptable way of handling this. The changes can be examined using VoiceOver, but it's a tedious business. My husband is looking at creating an applescript to help with this, but what we thought were standard buttons turn out to be not quite what they seem.
For the time being, you have to interact with each track changes comment layout item, clipboard the changed item, paste it into the Find window, then examine each occurrence with just the left and right arrow keys which will find the change. With the VO keys, only the new text is read and the old text is skipped. Sorry about the rambling explanation, but I've spent the whole day trying to get a workable way of using this feature.
