Online features in Word 2013

Word 2013 also supports collaborative work on documents in the cloud. These can be shared via SharePoint or OneDrive and can also be edited jointly by several users simultaneously. When synchronizing changes to a jointly edited document, those changes that were saved first are applied directly. In the case of subsequent changes by another user, the corresponding text passage is marked and the versions are then merged by saving them again. In the event of a conflict, Word points this out in and supports users in resolving the problem manually. The online functions also include the integration of social media. The following functions and features are available in word 2013:

• Backstage view: This now has a new command "Account" in the "File" tab. Users can log in here with their Microsoft account and, for example, change their account data, but also set the background and design of Word and integrate the services they use. The backstage view can thus be used to organize tasks for specific files.
• The integration of Microsoft SkyDrive offers further options when opening, saving and sharing documents: In the backstage view, you can choose between local management of a document and saving or opening it on Microsoft SkyDrive.
• To share the document stored there with other users, a link can be sent or made available in the social networks used.
• When a link to a document is sent, recipients can view the document in their Web browser as long as it is presented online on the author's computer.
• Inserting online graphics from the Web has become even clearer and easier in Word 2013. Users can choose to download photos and clip art from Office.com, search for images online using Microsoft's Bing search engine, or access image files through various social media services or SkyDrive.
• This also applies to videos from the web: These can be inserted into a document via Bing or YouTube, for example, and played directly there.

In addition to Word 2013, you will also find many other Microsoft software single licenses in the Wiresoft software shop, which you can buy there at a special price.
