Tutorial How to Display Add-ins in Word (Full+Image)
It takes pages and pages to explain all the features of Microsoft Word, and the explanation would be even longer if add-ins were also taken into account. The function of add-ins in Microsoft Word is much the same as that of extensions in the browser, namely to provide additional functionality.
Why isn’t this functionality integrated into Microsoft Word? The more features a software has, the larger the file size, and the more bugs that appear, making software maintenance more difficult.
Removing features that are not used by the majority of users, and providing a means for third parties to provide additional functionality in the form of add-ins, is the best middle ground that can benefit all parties. The developer’s burden in maintaining and developing software is lighter, the software file size is smaller, and each user is free to choose the add-ins they need. Here’s how to easily display Add-ins in Word:
How to Show Add-ins in Word
1. First of all move to tab File.
2. Then select Options.
3. After that select the menu Add-ins and will appear all the add-ins that have been installed in your Microsoft Word.
Free and Paid Add-ins
The number of add-ins available for Microsoft Word today can run into the hundreds. Some are completely free, some are free only during the trial period, some can only be used after making a purchase. For now, the number of free add-ins far outnumbers paid add-ins.
The following are some examples of free add-ins that you can use. The first, the Wikipedia add-ins for searching Wikipedia articles directly within Microsoft Word. Wikipedia search results are displayed in the right sidebar. The second, Woodpecker to create document templates. If you often make business letters with the same opening and closing sentences, you can save them as templates with the help of Woodpecker so you don’t have to retype all the sentences over and over again.
Another add-in that is equally free is MyScript Math Sample for writing mathematical equations using the drawing pad, mouse or touch screen. For those of you who have never used add-ins and want to give it a try, here we show you how to display add-ins in Microsoft Word.
Closing
In addition to the add-ins mentioned above, there are other add-ins that you might like such as Symbols and Characters to make it easier to find symbols to be inserted into documents, Translator to translate languages, Font Finder to make font selection easier, QR4Office to create and insert QR codes into documents, and Pexels to find and insert photos from the pexels.com site.
There is also an add-in called Handy Calculator to display the calculator in the task pane. With this calculator, you can do calculations without having to switch between Microsoft Word and the built-in Windows calculator or other external calculators. To see all the available add-ins and find the add-ins you need, you can directly visit the official Microsoft website.
