Inserting AutoShapes from Clip Art

In addition to drawing AutoShapes, you can insert AutoShapes, such as computers and furniture, from the Clip Art task pane. These AutoShapes are called clips . The Clip Art task pane gives you a miniature of each clip. You can click the clip you want to insert onto your document or click the clip list arrow to select other options, such as previewing the clip or searching for similar clips. After you insert an AutoShape, you can add text to it. You can format the text in an AutoShape in the same way you format all other text in Word.
