Editing How to Add Annotations in Word



Adding annotations in Word can be helpful when you want to provide comments, feedback or suggestions on a document without directly editing the text. Here are the steps to add annotations in Word:

1. Open your Word document.
2. Select the text or portion of the document where you want to add the annotation.
3. Click on the "Review" tab in the top menu.
4. Click on the "New Comment" button in the "Comments" section. Alternatively, you can use the shortcut "Ctrl+Alt+M" to add a new comment.
5. A comment box will appear on the right side of the document where you can type your annotation.
6. Click outside of the comment box to save your annotation.
7. You can view all comments and annotations by clicking on the "Review" tab and then clicking on "Show Markup" and selecting "Comments" from the drop-down menu.

You can also reply to an existing comment or delete a comment by clicking on the appropriate buttons in the comment box. Annotations can be very useful when collaborating on a document with others, and they can help to keep track of feedback and changes.
