Insert a text box

A text box is text within a frame that can be easily moved within the document you are editing. You can use text boxes for a number of purposes, for example, to create captions for image elements or to add quotations from the main text to draw attention to them.

To insert a text box, do the following:

1.Place the cursor in the place of the document where you want to insert the text box.

2.On the Insert tab, click  Text box.When working in macOS, you can also run the Insert > Text box command from the command menu.

3.Enter the desired text in the text box. Formatting of text in the text box is done in the same way as formatting of the main text of the document.

4.To deselect a text box, click anywhere in the document outside the text box.
