The traditional, rectangular box is what many Word users are familiar with when you mention a text box. Let's face it, we're all familiar and comfortable with the traditional text box...but let's take a walk on the wild side and do something different!
Follow the steps below:
- First make sure that your Drawing toolbar is visible.
- If it is not, simply right-click on one of your toolbars and click on the word Drawing. You will now see the Drawing toolbar on your screen at the bottom.
- Click the AutoShape button on the Drawing toolbar to create an AutoShape.
- Select a shape. I like the folded corner myself.
- Right-click that AutoShape, and choose Add Text on the pop-up menu that appears.
Wasn't that simple to do? And everyone will wonder how you did it!
