Resume reading

Reopen a document and keep reading right where you left off. Word remembers where you were‚ even when you reopen an online document from a different computer!

Online video

Insert online videos you can watch right in Word, without having to leave the document, so you can stay focused on the content.

Expand and collapse

Collapse or expand parts of a document with just a tap or click. Put summaries in headings and leave it to readers to open the section and read the details if they want.

Simple markup

A new revision view, Simple Markup, provides a clean, uncomplicated view of your document, but you still see indicators where tracked changes have been made.

Reply to comments and mark them as done

Comments now have a reply button. You can debate and easily track comments right next to the relevant text. And when a comment is addressed and no longer requires attention, you can mark it as done. It will be greyed out to keep out of your way, but the conversation will still be there if you need to revisit it later.

Add polish and style

With Word 2021 you can create more beautiful and engaging documents, and you can work with more media types‚ like online videos and pictures. You can even open PDFs.

Start with a template
