I want to add some shapes, pictures and different font art in my Word
36 file. How can I do this?
In Word, you can work with graphics. There are two types of graphics:
drawing objects and pictures. It includes shapes, curves, lines, text
effect, photographs, Clip Arts, etc. Let me tell you how to use all
these features.
Shapes
Word 2016 has a set of built-in shapes that you can use in your documents. You can
resize, rotate, flip, and add colour in shapes. The Shapes command contains several
categories of shapes, like Lines, Rectangles, Basic Shapes, Block Arrows, Flowchart,
Stars and Banners, and Callouts.

Step 1: Click on the Insert tab.
