NARRATOR: Hi, this is a tutorial to take you through how to insert a shape into a Microsoft Word document. There may be a number of reasons that you want to insert a shape into a document, and it may be the case that you want to insert multiple shapes into a document. So I'm just going to run through that now. 

So the first thing that you want to do is select the Insert tab from the toolbar here. So it's just the third one across. And then you want to go to Shapes. And once you click that, you'll get a dropdown menu of various shapes and lines, and pretty much everything that you should want in terms of shapes. 

It may be the case that you want to insert multiple shapes, layered shapes, that kind of thing. So we'll just run through a basic process of that now. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to insert a square, but you can go for oval, circle, whichever one you require. 

So I'm going to select the rectangle. And just clicking on the screen, keeping my finger firmly pressed down, I'm going to draw the square there. And once you've drawn that, if I click off the shape, you can see it returns to the normal toolbar here. If I click within the shape, I get drawing tools and I get various options as to what I want to do with the shape. 

So I can change what it looks like, I can change the fill shape, I can change the outline and I can change the effect. So if I wanted it to have a 3D effect, I could change that here as well. I'm just going to leave it as it is for the moment. And then it may be the case that you want to create a layered shape, which is a shape within a shape. 

So for example, I may want a call out within that square. So I'm just going to find a call out from here. There we go. And I select that. And the same process again. So I've clicked within the square, and then I'm going to click and add a call out. 

Same thing again, I can change the color and the outline, should I only want to change the outline, and general shape fill. And to adjust any size issues, I can just drag from here, and you can see it's giving me a preview there of what it's going to look like. And also to drag proportionally as well to make it bigger from whichever side I need it to be. So I'm just going to leave that there. 

And to insert text into any of your shapes, you just click on the shape and you can start typing. And then if you select that text, you can then alter anything to do with the font and size again here. Also, you can change the color, make it bold, italic, underline, that kind of thing, should you need to do so. OK? 

There is the option of when you have inserted a shape and it doesn't exactly go where you've planned it to go, there can be an issue of sending it forward or back. So to do that, you just select the keys here. So this would bring it forward and this would send it backward. For example, if I wanted the call out to be behind a square. I'd select it like that. 

Obviously I would want it to be visible, and then I can bring that forward like that. So that's how you would insert a shape into a Word document. And you can do that with various shapes, whichever was appropriate for the task that you were doing. OK, thank you.
