Insert online picture, online video in Word document, it sounds very familiar, right. I have had a tutorial on how to insert pictures into Word and you probably already know how. But what if you already have the photos or videos to insert, what if you don’t have it on your computer, or you can’t download them? Luckily, Word has integrated a feature that can help you insert pictures or videos directly from the web into Word.
Note that only version 2013 or later can be used.
