Seems like this thread is a bit off topic now, but I'll chime in anyway. When I co-write a paper with latex users, I use latexdiff:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexdiff/
When I need reviews from non-latex users (e.g. my boss), I have them markup a PDF by hand or via pdf markup software (e.g. Adobe Acrobat).

I've started keeping papers under version control for latex. But, if
I have collaborators who use word, then I just track changes.On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 9:13 PM, Ryan May <rmay31@...287...> wrote:

PDF Software & Tools Tailored to Your Business | Foxit nice annotation
tools for PDF reviewing, and its very fast and it workson
Linux through CrossOver (probably would work via wine as
well).What type of revision tracking do you use? Treat your
documents likecode?
Google code has in-place commenting option that makes me
think thatdocument
revisioning would be easier that way (one day when I start
using Latex:))

Hi Ryan, What is your typical reviewing process? Do
you ask people to review on PDF outputs or via
version controlled Latex document? OpenOffice also
has a good review system where I can track my/others
changes easily. On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 3:27 PM,

latex-generated PDFs works well to get reviews

people I work with don't rely upon MS Office's
electronic editing capabilities.
