Empower your write-ups using Microsoft Office 2013

Microsoft Office 2013Whether you want to be a powerful blogger by nurturing to the interest of your target audience, a corporate careerist who wants to be on top of all business presentations and meetings, or a budding entrepreneur, pictures and videos offer an effective way of communication. Not only do pictures and videos build user interest, they also help you to invoke emotions to your story, thus helping you communicate seamlessly though your Word documents. Thus, pictures and videos allow you to create a feature-rich interactive document that combines the power of words with an appropriate picture or a video for an all-round user experience.

It is rightly said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Thus, for the same reason, the new Office 2013 productivity suite offers you the ability to insert an online picture and a web video directly to your documents for a compelling experience. This feature makes it easy for you to find and insert pictures and videos from a variety of sources. The videos can be played with a simple tap of a button on your Word document, without the need of leaving the application.


Inserting online pictures into a document

  1. In the Word document, go to the ‘Insert’ tab and select the ‘Online Pictures’ option.
  2. Now an ‘Insert Pictures’ window will appear. This window allows you to directly insert online pictures from Bing Image Search, Skydrive, Office.com, and Flickr.
  3. Select the service that you want to use and type the keyword in the search box.
  4. Choose the image that you want to imbed in the Word doc and click ‘Insert.’
  5. To insert multiple images in the document, select the images by pressing the ‘Ctrl’ key and then press ‘Insert.’

Inserting online videos to a document

  1. To insert an online video, go to the ‘Insert’ tab and click on the ‘Online video’ option.
  2. In the ‘Insert Video’ window, select from the Bing Video Search and YouTube options and type in your keyword to search for an appropriate video.
  3. Choose the appropriate video and hit ‘Insert.’
  4. After inserting the video, test it by playing it inside your Word document.

Once the video has been successfully inserted in your Word document, it behaves like a picture. This means that you can resize and reposition it in your document. Videos in your document will feature a large ‘Play’ button that will allow you to easily play your video with just a single click. However, if you wish to change the video in your document, simply right click it and select ‘Change picture’ option to replace it with a new picture.

But, when you want to print these documents or export them to PDFs, the videos will end up in a static format and the ‘Play’ button will be removed to ensure that the thumbnail is clearly visible.

So, what are you waiting for? Use these nifty Microsoft Office 2013 features and capture the world with your powerful Word documents and climb the corporate ladder in your niche.
