Currently, on Word documents, different objects are often inserted to support textual text, and at the same time help listeners see and understand the problem more quickly. If you want to insert a picture, you can insert it into a Picture, want to insert special characters into Shapes…So, if you want to insert a diagram on the current word document, how do you do it? To solve this problem, I will guide you specifically through the article below.

Smartart – object to insert diagrams into Word.

Smartart is a library of diagrams with different styles and genres. When using Word, you can use this object to draw diagrams such as reports, comparisons, personnel diagrams, company diagrams, increase and decrease indexes, compare objects…

Just like how to insert Shapes objects in Word , to do this, you need to move the mouse on the Ribbon toolbar to select the Insert Tab, navigate to the “Illustrations” command group and select “Smartart”.

A new dialog box appears, which is “Choose a SmartArt Grapic”. You hover from top to bottom to select a diagram that suits your needs, then click on it and select “OK”.

Thus, the Smartart object you selected has been displayed on the current Word page.

Import content and customize Smartart objects.

To enter content into the object you have selected, click on the place where the word “Text” is and type the content you want.

The next job that you need to do next is to customize these components to suit your needs.

To customize the Smartart object, we need to pay attention to the two Design and Format tabs on the Ribbon toolbar.

Note: In the process of importing content for the elements in the Smartarrt object, the font size will automatically be adjusted to match the Shapes objects.
